Review: Mad About You

Mad About You Mad About You by Mhairi McFarlane
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Four and a half stars.

Okay, its true I've morphed into a nicer version of myself.

Harriet is a wedding photographer, she' sort-of happy with her boyfriend Jon until he uses a weekend away with his family to celebrate his parents' 40th wedding anniversary to propose to her in front of his entire family. Harriet realises enough is enough, she's mistaken comfort and gratitude for love for too long, any longer and she'll end up married to a man she doesn't love.

But moving out of Jon's house forces Harriet to confront some uncomfortable home truths, about herself, about past relationships and about friendship. Not least because Harriet finds herself sharing a house with a groom who walked away from his wedding on the wedding day; how can Harriet like a man who could behave so appallingly?

I loved this, Mhiari McFarlane has outdone herself, creating a wonderful, flawed character like Harriet who finally finds the strength to what is right, and what is true.

I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
