I usually enjoy Marian Keys and her Walsh sister series but I found this one dragged on a lot. I enjoyed that while reading it you got a bit of an Irish accent it felt to me. But it just kept going around and around. It was very drawn out and could have been reduced quite a bit.
If you enjoy the Walsh series you should give this one a try and see. But for me unfortunately it fell flat.
But I will definitely read more of hers in the future

Hooray for Marian Keyes! She is one of my favourite authors and her newest novel, My Favourite Mistake does not disappoint.

It is so wonderful to return to the Walsh sisters, this time, seeing where Anna’s life has taken her. I really appreciated Keyes’s portrayal of the pandemic, not avoiding it, but showing the impact it had on Anna and really using it as a driver for change, like it was for so many people. Anna takes on a new type of job in a small town, trying to help get a boutique hotel off the ground, but facing the backlash of the local community that doesn’t want it there.

Many returning and favourite characters make appearances, it’s just so lovely to be back with them all, to see how they’ve changed and how they’ve stayed the same. Like all of us really, which is why these down-to-earth characters are so loveable.

Classic Marian Keyes and can’t wait to see which sister we get to revisit next!
