Praise for Life and Soul of the Party
-
Mike Gayle creates real, ordinary people with real ordinary lives who are so real and so believable that you mourn for them from the moment you finish reading. - Lisa JewellPacked with drama, friendship, love and tragedy, this is a brilliant touching tale of what happens when real life catches up with us - HeatMoving and powerful - Daily MirrorWhat I love about Mike Gayle is the way he seamlessly blends humour and sensitivity - his books are always rip-roaringly funny, yet so humane too. - Freya NorthGayle (rather bravely) often writes in the first person as a female character, but he hits the right notes, and the result is a warm and unforced comedy... Gayle's humour is human and he has a fine eye for the quiet pain of unrequited love. - Daily Telegraph
