Reviews

Alexander has written a hugely loveable book, endearingly funny, bang up to date and spot on the truth. * Red on The Case of the Missing Boyfriend *
CC is a compulsively likeable Everywoman, part Doris Day, part Bridget Jones, her life laid bare with Nick Alexander's trademark mix of forensic detail and warm-hearted comedy * Rupert Smith *
