What They're Saying

Critics Review

‘With writing reminiscent of Maeve Binchy’s, Meaney is carving out a niche for herself in this crowded market.’

This is a feelgood book you won’t be able to put down - Irish Independent

This book is like chatting with a friend over a cup of tea - full of gossip and speculation, and all the things that make life interesting. (…) this touching and intricate story will give back as much as you put in. - The Irish Mail on Sunday

A warm, engaging read - Woman’s Way

Praise for Roisin Meaney - :

Meaney weaves wonderful, feelgood tales of a consistently high standard. And that standard rises with each book she writes. - Irish Examiner

The Last Week of May is a highly engaging and heartwarming tale populated with warm and loveable characters. Roisin Meaney’s gentle storytelling is reminiscent of that of Maeve Binchy. I truly adored the book and devoured it within a few short hours. - Melissa Hill

Keenly observed and beautifully told. Lots of writers are compared to Binchy but Meaney really is … Buy it now and put it in the beach bag. - Irish Independent Review

The plot will draw you in; and there is both laughter and tears along the way. Meaney is an accomplished storyteller. - Books Ireland
