Rebecca Hardiman's debut novel revolves around a multigenerational Irish family living in Dun Laoghaire, Dublin, a small gossipy place where everyone knows everyone. Feisty gran, 83 year old Millie is a real live wire, with her dangerous driving, penchant for shoplifting and plans to grow old disgracefully. Her middle aged son is the put upon and exhausted Kevin, a stay at home father to four children, an out of work journalist in an occupation that has been turned upside down. However, it is his troubled, misunderstood, rebellious, hormonal and angst ridden 16 year old twin daughter, Aideen, that is making him want to tear his hair out, along with Aideen's ill feelings directed towards her twin, Nuala.

If you are looking for a story with a little bit of heart mixed with some shenanigans, this book is a decent pick.
