Absolutely hated this book. I would give it 0 stars if I could.

I thought it was a collection stories about women doing exciting / challenging / inspiring things.

However, the stories are all very abstract and hyperbolic, the characters are one dimensional and really only defined by the fact they are women. The stories are ridiculous - Eg one is about a woman who has a "rare genetic disease" - but actually she is becoming invisible because mainstream media and society don't portray her and she feels invisible.

I found the stories depressing and from a very narrow, one-sided perspective. As a woman reading this, I felt disappointed, frustrated and a bit insulted by the portrayal here.

I love Cecelia Ahern, and although I'm not usually a fan of shirt stories I enjoyed this collection! Easy to pick up and put down - I read it before bed over a few nights!

I generally struggle with short story collections as I don't feel that they have enough substance so I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed this collection much more than I thought I would. These are great stories to just pick up and read one when you have 5 minutes. I enjoyed the warmth and feeling of these stories and the underlying meanings. I would happily recommend this book to my friends. My favorite story was The Woman Who Wore Pink for the pure comedy of it.

A book which has a collection of short stories (30 of them)
Quick read- it almost comes across like one of those feel-good books. These stories are trying to be uplifting. I haven't really ever co e across an adult reading book made up of short stories.
The jury is still out on how I feel about it.

Thank you to NetGalley and Harper Collins UK for giving me the opportunity to read this. My review is honest and unbiased

I can not deny that these short stories are well written and readable - but they’re not for me. The premise and the stories themselves just seemed trite and a little bit over the top in the attempt to be “inspiring”.

Sorry Cecilia, this one didn’t grab me.

Loved this book flew through it in a day! Everyone can relate to certain characters in this book. Uplifting & makes you appreciate what you have. Not the usual type of book I go for but loved it! Well done to Cecelia ahern she got it spot on as always.
