A proposito di questo titolo

Brought to you by Penguin.

The hilarious and heart-wrenching new novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of STEPPING UP and THE UNMUMSY MUM.

*******************
Sometimes, in order to move forward, you need to go back.
Joni’s always felt like an outsider in her blended family, and as an adult she’s done all she can to avoid them. The only person she’s remained close to is her beloved Nana.

When Nana dies, she leaves behind something unexpected: an itinerary of pre-arranged activities for the whole family to complete over the course of a week. After years of trying but failing to bring Joni back into the fold, this appears to be Nana’s parting shot. After all, nothing says ‘family bonding’ quite like abseiling and ballroom dancing.

With marriage and kids on the horizon, the life Joni’s always dreamed of is finally within touching distance. The last thing she wants to do is revisit the past.

But Joni’s about to discover that a lot can happen in seven days. Nana’s Week of Fun is about to change everything…

Recensioni della critica

Sarah writes so well and creates characters that jump off the page, and On The Edge had me laughing and crying in all the best ways
On The Edge is warm, funny and truthful about the complexities of families. It’s bursting with positivity, and full of characters the reader can root for. Sarah is great at observing the detail of what makes relationships tick, and how the smallest things can have the biggest impact.
Sarah Turner writes family like no one else. With her trademark humour and insight, Turner creates a colourful world of family secrets and misunderstandings, of arguments and avoidance, while also revealing the love that lies beneath. On the Edge is a funny, pacy, big-hearted love letter to family, about accepting our roots and opening our hearts to the people who know us better than we know ourselves. It made me laugh, swear, gasp and cry and the ending is so compelling I hid in the garage to finish it. I loved it.
A warm, wise, hug of a novel, I adored it and will be recommending it to all my friends
One of the most beautifully tender and brilliantly funny books I’ve read. I felt I made friends from the first page. Sarah is a real talent in the women’s fiction genre and goes from strength to strength
On the Edge is a clever, riotous and funny story about reconciliations and self-discovery. With standout characterisation and lively humour, this had me hooked from the very first page.
A warm, witty read which I devoured in a few days. Sarah writes so well about family and family dynamics, by the end I felt I was part of this one, and was sorry to say goodbye to the characters
A family drama that mixes humour and poignancy
The author of The Unmumsy Mum always writes with such humour.
It'll warm your cockles!
