The saddest day of the year last year was the last episode ever of Gavin & Stacey, which will forever be one of the best things on TV, along with Nessa's iconic, 'Oh! What's occurrin'.'
Ruth Jones is, of course, one of the writers as well as one of the main characters (Nessa), so I had no doubt whatsoever that anything penned by her was going to be excellent. I've watched every single episode of G&S, but I've never, until now, read any of Jones' books. This* was a treat from start to finish.
Utterly readable, thoroughly entertaining, tinged with a teensy bit of sadness but lightly peppered with that amazing, gentle, clean humour we grew to love about the TV programme, it's a book in which you can immerse yourself and feel warm and cocooned. See About the Book below.
What a brilliant writer Jones is. I don't think my reading list will be complete until I've read all her books.
Wonderful, just wonderful.
