Our Doris

A very high 4 and a half stars read for me. I adored Doris. This book is just so clever and witty I was blown away by it. Charles Heathcote has such a sharp mind and this novel was reminiscent of great comedic works by great northern comedians such as Peter Kay and Victoria Wood. He gets extra brownie points from me for calling a cup of tea a brew in this book as well! I loved Harold and Doris's relationship. I loved the dichotomy of Doris's character. I loved the colloquial dialect of Harold's monologues. It was just so well fleshed out and laugh out loud funny. Well done Charles! And I am so excited to be diving into Indisputably Doris this afternoon. I would recommend this book to anyone and I think Charles really represented the elderly community well in this novel.
