Critics Review
Highly entertaining … a beguiling, thoroughly enjoyable read
So simple, so easy to read and yet so sensitive and profound at the same time. This is a world that feels real and one you don’t want to leave * Independent on Sunday *
Like all Hornby’s best work, it is both hugely enjoyable and deceptively artful * Spectator *
Everything Hornby writes is addictively readable and clever, but with Funny Girl he has surpassed himself * Red *
Hornby’s sunniest novel * Metro *
