The moving, funny, life-affirming book club read about new beginnings and finding friendship in unexpected places, from the author of Goodbye Birdie Greenwing 'Uplifting, full of charm and warmth' EMMA STONEX 'Charming, surprising, moving' CLARE CHAMBERS 'If you read one book this year, make sure it's this one' 5-star reader review 'The perfect mix of humour and heartache' Good Housekeeping 'Perfect for fans of A Man Called Ove and Eleanor Oliphant' AJ PEARCE **** George is angry at the world. His wife has died and now all he wants to do is sit in his underpants and shout at the cricket. The last thing he needs is his neighbour Betty trying to rescue him. And then there's the dog, a dachshund puppy called Poppy. George doesn't want a dog - he wants a fight. Dan is a counsellor with OCD who is great at helping other people - if only he were better at helping himself. His most meaningful relationship so far is with his labrador Fitz. But then comes a therapy session that will change his life. Lizzie is living in a women's refuge with her son Lenny, and has shut herself off from everyone around her. But when she is forced to walk the refuge's fat terrier, Maud, a new life beckons - if she can keep her secret just a while longer... Dog Days is a novel about those small but life-changing moments of connection; about community, and finding joy and comfort in living life off the leash. For fans who enjoyed the 'found family' of Anxious People by Fredrik Backman, and the wit and strong characters of Ted Lasso, Eleanor Oliphant and The Correspondent. __________________________________________________ Readers LOVE Dog Days: 'If you read one book this year, make sure it's this one' 5-star reader review 'A book with a big heart' 5-star reader review 'Dog Days had me feeling all the emotions.' 5-star reader review 'A joy to read from start to finish.' 5-star reader review 'Perfectly shows the true healing power of dogs, and how we are so lucky to have them around us' 5-star reader review
