I found this book on an Edinburgh bus seat so it was, in effect, released already. I read it over a weekend and found it to be a little heavy handed. Parsons tries to push all your emotional buttons but does so whilst wearing outsize ski gloves. I'd say that this is probably ideal poolside reading but if subtlety of touch is more your bag I'd suggest you look elsewhere. If I've done the man a disservice do feel free to put me in my place. This book will be released in the central part of Waverley station on Friday 5th July around 4:45pm

Sometimes you can't be bothered with subtlety and a good smack in the face with a ski-glove wielded Atlantic salmon of paint-by-numbers emotion is just what you need. If this describes how you feel at the moment then this is the book for you. Disposable popular fiction that passes the time - I quite liked it to be honest, so sue me.

My flatmate gave me it and I'm still thinking of something inventive to do with it but will probably just leave it on a train or in a café - very original.
