I got this one for myself in Kindle @RachelO (it was only 1.99), and also a paperback for my friend. Thanks for the rec. I like it so far, and I think she will too.

Lovely little read that I read originally after @RachelO review!
This book was such a fun easy read. If you‘re looking for a good weekend or traveling read pick this one up!
Fun, quirky tale of a dysfunctional family. Uplifting and happy - not something I read often!
Thanks to @RachelO who‘s great review made me buy it (and 99p on kindle!)
What a lovely line 💕
I loved the switching of view of this book - like hopping around the branches of a wonderful and quirky family tree, peaking in to the nests and feeling the knots of the lives of this family. A wonderful story based in, ultimately, understanding our weaknesses as people and not accepting the limitations put on us by others. Imaginative and moving, all the characters support and compliment each other beautifully. And a perfect ending.
A unexpected gem of a book, which I read with a big daft grin on my face. I absolutely loved it!
Tilly is a statistician. To understand the collapse of her marriage, she writes a report. With footnotes.
Violet is in her mid-20s, alone & effectively housebound. She starts exploring the world via a borrowed typewriter. She will become Tilly's grandmother.
Around these two unconventional, inconvenient women grow a chaotic family of characters - 👇
So far, this book is an absolute joy!

A little about the book I‘m reading ⬆️
I‘m enjoying it so far. I‘m a little under a 3rd of the way through. I like the characters but I‘d like them to be explored a bit better. So I hope we go further in depth. I‘m enjoying the story too. I can just marine Violet sat in her wheelchair, typing away and dreaming of far off lands. The POV changes quite a lot but not too much! I‘ll review properly when I‘m finished 😊
