I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would as I did not enjoy Rachel's Holiday as much as her other novels。 This book was fantastic and far superior to the first part of the story （it has been 25 years）。 It could be potentially triggering for those who have had a late miscarriage （baby loss in the third trimester） and had to give birth to their baby who had died in the womb。 What a terribly thing for anyone to live through， and I think the way the Rachel and Luke handled it was understandab I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would as I did not enjoy Rachel's Holiday as much as her other novels。 This book was fantastic and far superior to the first part of the story （it has been 25 years）。 It could be potentially triggering for those who have had a late miscarriage （baby loss in the third trimester） and had to give birth to their baby who had died in the womb。 What a terribly thing for anyone to live through， and I think the way the Rachel and Luke handled it was understandable。 In spite of the difficult subject it was still an enjoyable and easy to read。 。。。more

This book destroyed me。 I rarely cry with a book but this one is all the feels。

Book 12。 Another funny， entertaining read from Marian Keyes。 This on revisits Rachel and the Walsh family。 An excellent read。 🤓📚 #tsreadinglist2023 #tsrecommendations

In true Keyes style this story is a witty roller-coaster。 I enjoyed a catch-up with the Walsh family。

This was a very tedious read。 The plot seemed to drag on and on。 I didn’t connect with any of the characters and felt the same theme was repeated over and over—as one reviewer said “I love Quinn but am still connected to Tom。” I haven’t finished it yet and I don’t think I will。 I don’t really care who Rachel chooses to be with。 Why is that？ Perhaps Rachel’s character isn’t flawed enough？ She has great sex， she has supportive friends， she is successful at her job and her current partner is every This was a very tedious read。 The plot seemed to drag on and on。 I didn’t connect with any of the characters and felt the same theme was repeated over and over—as one reviewer said “I love Quinn but am still connected to Tom。” I haven’t finished it yet and I don’t think I will。 I don’t really care who Rachel chooses to be with。 Why is that？ Perhaps Rachel’s character isn’t flawed enough？ She has great sex， she has supportive friends， she is successful at her job and her current partner is every woman’s dream。 I just。 Can’t。 Identify。 。。。more

As always， this book is a keeperMarian is thoughtful with insight to all of her characters and， as always， no matter how serious the subject her amazing wit and humor carry you through。 Her writing makes you want to start all over and read it again。 Thank you Marian。

Ik las deel 1 over Rachel denk ik 20 jaar geleden。 Deel 2 vooral gekocht 'for old time's sake'。 Het was niet opvallend / verrassend， maar wel gewoon een heerlijk en mooi boek！ Ik las deel 1 over Rachel denk ik 20 jaar geleden。 Deel 2 vooral gekocht 'for old time's sake'。 Het was niet opvallend / verrassend， maar wel gewoon een heerlijk en mooi boek！ 。。。more

An enjoyable read。

An in depth story about every type of addiction: shopping， sex， drugs & alcohol from the point of view of an addict turned counselor。 I was spell bound as this books digs into the mind of addicts and decision making。 This is a very interesting book with multi-faceted characters。

Paula Maguire ，

Although I find all the talk of designer lable a bit irritating I did enjoy this book - Rachel progress is convincing and the book develops the themes of addiction to more mundane things （ like tidyness， routine etc） She also deals with miscarriage， dealing with the overwhelming grief and how it can impact relationships。 It's also often laugh out loud funny and backed with affirmations on how to maintain good mental health in a farily subtle way。 Although I find all the talk of designer lable a bit irritating I did enjoy this book - Rachel progress is convincing and the book develops the themes of addiction to more mundane things （ like tidyness， routine etc） She also deals with miscarriage， dealing with the overwhelming grief and how it can impact relationships。 It's also often laugh out loud funny and backed with affirmations on how to maintain good mental health in a farily subtle way。 。。。more

An enjoyable read。 And yet not a light read。 This is a very adult book that deals with life's most painful moments with levity and humor and some tears。 A great follow-up to the aging Walsh family。 An enjoyable read。 And yet not a light read。 This is a very adult book that deals with life's most painful moments with levity and humor and some tears。 A great follow-up to the aging Walsh family。 。。。more

Like putting on your favourite， most comfortable pjs。 The fantastic characters are back， delicious storyline that ends exactly how you want it to。 Marian Keyes at her best。

As a fan of Marian Keyes for two decades or more， I was thrilled to get to spend more time Rachel Walsh。 The previous Rachel novel， _Rachel's Holiday_， is a book I've read multiple times and once taught in a Contemporary Irish novel course。 I'm happy to say， Marian Keyes did not disappoint。 Rachel has matured and changed and is still completely her hilarious self。 The book is a perfect mix of humor and pathos， romance and grief。 Are there too many characters？ Yes。 Is it about 100 pages too long？ As a fan of Marian Keyes for two decades or more， I was thrilled to get to spend more time Rachel Walsh。 The previous Rachel novel， _Rachel's Holiday_， is a book I've read multiple times and once taught in a Contemporary Irish novel course。 I'm happy to say， Marian Keyes did not disappoint。 Rachel has matured and changed and is still completely her hilarious self。 The book is a perfect mix of humor and pathos， romance and grief。 Are there too many characters？ Yes。 Is it about 100 pages too long？ Maybe。 Do you care when you are reading it？ Absolutely not。 This book will appeal to readers who like smart， romantic， slice-of-life fiction。 In addition， those who have an interest in addiction/recovery stories， Ireland， and grief will find plenty here to satisfy。 If you are already a fan of Keyes， you won't be disappointed by this one。 。。。more

Belen ，

Vuelven las hermanas Walsh！！！ Rachel tiene una vida estable y feliz cuando reaparece en su vida Luke y todo se tambalea。 El libro tiene emoción， risas， amor y desamor， y te engancha de principio a fin。 Esta novela supone mi reconciliación con Marian Keyes （no así con quien traduzca sus libros al castellano） y hace que quiera volver a leer los libros de las Walsh， que tantas alegrías me dieron en su momento。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 TW: childloss This is my first Marian Keyes book and I have to say， as a mother of a child that left way too early， I have never felt so seen or heard。 Even before I realised what was about to come up I completely recognised Rachel’s words and feelings。 I would sit up and read verses to my husband… both of us stunned to have our own experience so beautifully， yet heartbreakingly， captured。 Thank you for this book and writing about such a traumatic event in such a human way。

To be clear， I'm only giving it four stars IN COMPARISON to the rest of Keyes' oevre。 To be clear， I'm only giving it four stars IN COMPARISON to the rest of Keyes' oevre。 。。。more

Reading this book was like catching up with old friends。 It reminded me of reading these books 15 years ago。 It’s a good book but I would’ve given it five stars just to spend some time with these characters again。

Nicole Taylor ，

What a beautiful story。 💙

Catherine Garibaldi ，

Follow up to Rachel’s Holiday （re read） and read this in Cameron House。Human and forgivable but all very easy - gets addicted， goes to rehab， recovers - doesn’t really show shite reality。

Elizabeth Terrel ，

What a beautiful visit to the Walsh family！I DO wish I had gone back and re-read all the Walsh family stories again -- I'll be doing it now， but I realized it's been long enough， that I had forgotten details。Marian Keyes is one of my favorite writers of all time。And the characters and the depth of their stories and the complex and challenging worlds Keyes creates are why。I'd hate to pick favorites of her books， but this is way up there！ What a beautiful visit to the Walsh family！I DO wish I had gone back and re-read all the Walsh family stories again -- I'll be doing it now， but I realized it's been long enough， that I had forgotten details。Marian Keyes is one of my favorite writers of all time。And the characters and the depth of their stories and the complex and challenging worlds Keyes creates are why。I'd hate to pick favorites of her books， but this is way up there！ 。。。more

I only read this as I enjoyed the first book and I have to say I was very disappointed。 This book is nearly 500 pages long yet it should have been over after about 300。 Too long winded and really dragged out。 I enjoyed the storyline and the flicking between the past and the present but I just felt bored by the end。

Shirley Goodrum ，

Last hear her book， Grow Ups， disappointed me and I wasn't expecting much， so the opening chapters had to overcome my lack of appetite for the number of characters exploding on the pages， but then the story settled into Rachel Walsh the addict of 'Rachel's Holiday' fame and it took hold。 Is it Chick Lit？ Yep， but it is so much more。 Eradicate Keyes humorous light touch， and you lay bare a tale of addiction， the depth of family， the grief of still birth， divorce， and the constant stuggle of recov Last hear her book， Grow Ups， disappointed me and I wasn't expecting much， so the opening chapters had to overcome my lack of appetite for the number of characters exploding on the pages， but then the story settled into Rachel Walsh the addict of 'Rachel's Holiday' fame and it took hold。 Is it Chick Lit？ Yep， but it is so much more。 Eradicate Keyes humorous light touch， and you lay bare a tale of addiction， the depth of family， the grief of still birth， divorce， and the constant stuggle of recovery。 What I love about Keyes is her ability to show fragile， fractured lives sans morbidity， and I appaud Again Rachel for doing just that。 I am a Keyes fan， again。 。。。more

I really like Marian Keyes for some reason， there's something so accessible and comfy about her characters plus she is a veteran at writing romance。 A little cheesy but the good kind。 I really like Marian Keyes for some reason， there's something so accessible and comfy about her characters plus she is a veteran at writing romance。 A little cheesy but the good kind。 。。。more
