Description

‘So many women will find this book speaks to them.  It makes you laugh and cry but it is truly inspiring’ Katie Fforde ‘Sweet, sad, insightful and joyful – this book pressed all the emotion buttons and I’m so glad it did’ Milly Johnson ‘A beautiful, tender and joyful story.’ Susan Lewis Meet Greta. She’s funny. She’s flawed. She’s hiding so much behind her big smile she’s forgotten who she is. But Greta is about to discover that the key to being happy is…being yourself. Greta Gale has played the part of the funny fat one her entire life, hiding her insecurities behind a big smile. But size doesn’t matter when you can laugh at yourself, right? Until Greta realises she’s the only one not laughing. And deep down, she’s not sure if she’ll ever laugh again. But Greta is about to discover that sometimes the best moments in life come when it’s all gone a bit pear-shaped… ‘Poignant and profound, warm and witty, Carmel’s brilliant writing invites us to look beyond the smiley face to the complex tangle of emotions inside us all. I absolutely adored it’  Sunday Times bestseller Cathy Bramley ‘Warm, engrossing storytelling at its best’ Irish Times bestseller Sheila O’Flanagan

Author Biography:

Carmel Harrington is an exciting voice in women's fiction - twice shortlisted for the Irish Book Awards, she has the potential to fill the Maeve Binchy slot with her warm, moving and deeply felt novels about family life. She's extremely well connected in the Irish literary world. She chairs the Wexford Literary Festival and is on the panel of TV3's Elaine Show. Carmel has a strong base in Ireland but her voice captures readers' hearts all over the world and we'd now like to grow her in the UK and in Australia as well as accelerating growth in Ireland. Her stories are heart-warming, deeply emotional, and deal with some dark themes but are always ultimately uplifting.
