Hot Brands Verdict
Most of us have been there, or are still there, and Charlotte’s take on the trials and tribulations of a break-up is very funny. Using real-life stories as examples she takes the reader through first loves, knowing your enemy, including potential parents-in-law, how to survive the ‘I hate you so much right now’ stage, the road to recovery, mixed with a little revenge, and how to move on, including the perils of re-bound loves, and the joy of single life. In her final chapters she gives the view from the boys and how to set yourself up again for the merry-go-round. As well as the humour, there is also good advice which might save you from doing something you might regret!
