Dawn's autobiography was so funny and I couldn't put it down and this book was the complete opposite.

Die Charaktere werden im Laufe des Buches immer lebendiger und wirken wie reale Menschen, die einem aus dem Leben berichten.It's squarely and unashamedly aimed at middle aged women, it's full of stereotyped characters and irritating text-speak, has a plot that's largely predictable from the blurb alone, and a "twist" that's both obvious and pointless.

Written in diary format, with each chapter narrated by a different voice, this is a hilarious, sharp and utterly compelling novel about the ups and down of family, sibling rivalry and growing up.Well, the book had a few moments where I laughed out loud, a lot of moments that amused me, but mostly I didn’t find it funny. And thus, I approached her novel A Tiny Bit Marvellous expecting to laugh my head off, bust a gut, and spend hours reveling in her trademark humor.
