Reeva Mehta is thriving. Consumed in her career as one of London’s top divorce lawyers, she doesn’t bat an eyelid when her mum calls to tell her that her dad is dead. Because he’s been dead since she was five . . . hasn’t he?

If finding out her dad was alive – until last week – wasn’t bad enough, his last request was for his daughters to spend fourteen days in mourning at his house. Which means Reeva must spend a fortnight stuck with the people who betrayed her when she needed them the most – her sisters.

Navigating her absent Bollywood megastar mother, newly dead father and scheming sisters with only a temperamental boyfriend – and even more temperamental cat – by her side, it’s no wonder Reeva’s hair is falling out. Could confronting the truth help the Mehtas put aside their differences, or will attending a funeral be the death of this family?

My Thoughts:

This was such a funny story, I was laughing out loud pretty much the whole way through. The main character is called Reeva who is a high flying divorce lawyer so when her mum rings and tells her some devastating news it doesn’t hit Reeva like it should because what she finds out is that her mum has been lying to her. When she goes back to the family home she must spend fourteen days with her family and they are a bunch of interesting characters. I feel like people will be able to relate to this story and I really found it funny and engaging. I would definitely recommend it. It is like sunshine on a cloudy day, it will lift your soul.
