'I don't remember when I last read a book that gave me so many laughs' Christina Patterson, Sunday Times 'Tremendously entertaining' Rachel Cooke, Observer 'A writer of considerable urbanity and wit' Lynn Barber, Daily Telegraph 'You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll love Hugh even more' Woman & Home 'Deliciously witty' Celia Imrie 'Utterly charming' Jack Whitehall 'A great read' Graham Norton 'Beautiful.
