I thoroughly enjoyed this - easy to read and the story just flows. Lots of laughs, but touching and honest too with snippets of what I'm sure are many of the author's own experiences of being Mum to a child with autism. The children's party chapter is just one example that springs to mind of the challenges Lucy faced, that I'm sure many parents will resonate with.
Lucy is a such a likeable character - warm, fun and caring and I enjoyed getting swept along with her hectic lifestyle. Although my own children are older now, I remember those days of juggling!
I thought Lucy's different roles were an important part of the story - wife, mum, daughter and daughter in law, and of course her her career as a professional cellist. I thought her female friendships were an important part of the story too - I loved the support network her friends provided and the escapism they offered from everyday life.
I look forward to reading more from Katy Cox.
