A Lot of Fuss About a Duck

A really nice story about female friendships. A little like sex in the city, it’s engaging from the start and the characters were well drawn and believable.

Lauren, Olivia and Julia have been friends forever despite being very different characters. They holiday in the south of France and their lives head in very different directions. Hard times are ahead with each woman having to look inside herself and choose a different path than they had planned. But their friendship endures and they learn about love, life and each other.
Really enjoyable and believable characters, this book is a joy to read!

Lauren, Julia and Olivia have been friends forever. Now that they are in their twenties their friendship is tested. Lauren is recently married, Olivia is quickly becoming an alcoholic and Julia believes she might never find love.

​The narration by each of the women grabs you from the beginning and you are immersed in their lives. Each character rings true and you follow their ups and downs as if you are the fourth in their little group.

​Fast paced, humorous and sometimes sad, this story carries you through to the end before you know it. Being able to read it in one day makes it a great book for the beach or your next vacation.


I received an eBook from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I read this book on the beach and I loved everything about this book. The felt drawn to the characters and all the twists and turns going on in their lives. A feel good book about friendship, hoping there will be a part 2.

Thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the review copy.

"Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for the advance copy of this book, in exchange for an honest review."

Loved this book very much. It had just enough comedy & sweet romance and the storyline was great! I highly recommend!

I enjoyed the constant change of perspective in this book. I felt the friendships were realistic given that the girls had all gone in different directions. As one reviewer stated, I did think it ended abruptly but sometimes books do. I received a copy from NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.

Three different women who have been friends forever. And they are now on a girls getaway trip! sounds like a lot of fun.
This book was a quick and fun read. It gives us insight into three individual lives and their problems. It was an absolutely delightful read.

Perfect relaxing read to kill a few hours. It was funny, easy to read and overall just very enjoyable. Hadn't read anything by this author before but I'll be on the lookout for more by her in the future.

Lauren, Olivia and Julia have been friends since school but have drifted apart a bit, Lauren has just got married, Olivia has a high flying job but drinks too much, and Julia is always single. So when they decide to go on holiday together to the South of France there could be fun ahead!

A lighthearted easy read book ideal for the beach when you just want to relax and not think too much

I liked this book, It is a sweet romance that was eady to read. I like the characters and the story.

If you're after a book that follows three individuals as they handle the trials and tribulations of life then Lauren, Julia and Olivia are for you. An easy summer read with plot lines that are relatable to any group of friends as they embark on their own individual paths.

A lot of Fuss about a Duck is such a fun and cheerful book.
I have to mention the title which did make me giggle, and the cover is so sweet and pretty.
I've not read this author before but I will certainly be seeking more of Ms Lowes books in the future, I loved the story, it's got great pacing which kept me engaged throughout. it leaves you feeling very happy.
