Reviews

Her best book so far. Repeatedly and deservedly likened to Maeve Binchy, she is a master of her craft and a gifted storyteller. She has outdone herself with a skilful plot, memorable characters and the ability to leave the reader wanting more. The cleverly written plot-within-a-plot gives an interesting twist to this absorbing book. If you are a Binchy fan, I would highly recommend you get to know Meaney too. - Irish Independent

The Last Week of May is a highly engaging and heartwarming tale populated with warm and loveable characters. Roisin Meaney's gentle storytelling is reminiscent of that of Maeve Binchy. I truly adored the book and devoured it within a few short hours. - Melissa Hill

Keenly observed and beautifully told. Lots of writers are compared to Binchy but Meaney really is ... Buy it now and put it in the beach bag. - Irish Independent Review

With writing reminiscent of Maeve Binchy's, Meaney is carving out a niche for herself in this crowded market. - Irish Examiner

The plot will draw you in; and there is both laughter and tears along the way. Meaney is an accomplished storyteller. - Books Ireland

A heart-warming story . . . that readers are bound to devour - Irish Independent
