"THIS IS DIFFERENT!"

Agatha Pantha has a different way with words and after years of living alone she isn't afraid to let you know what she thinks.

Three characters, who have been left behind, come together in this lovely story about love, loss and aging. This book was such an enjoyable read from start to finish with a surprising amount of laughs.

It also made me think about how society treats both the young and old and the chasm between 'adults', the 'elderly' and 'kids'. Age doesn't necessarily mean you know best and is no indication of your limitations.

I'm so glad to have read this book, you will definitely fall in love with these characters.
