I somewhat liked this book. The blurp was intriging and I started reading it enthusiasticly. I was very curious how the six birthdays would be interconnected, and thought it a nice concept of connecting six seperate stories.

I've read the first section about the little girl who has to go to hospital with appendicitis on her birthday, but I don't feel enthusiastic about reading the rest of the book, so it's going back on my Available pile.

An enjoyably warm and irreverent narrative describing a middle-class single mum's gentle desperation, attempted suicide and road to recovery which all rings true, but never becomes depressing as it is peppered with episodes of real comic timing, love, passion, temper and redecorating.. a bit like real life, really.
