Rezensionen

"Cronin blends real-feeling characters and several emotionally rich plot lines in this British charmer that is a powerfully sweet ode to human connection in all forms." - Booklist (starred review)

"A winning tale of second chances." - Publishers Weekly

"The author of The One Hundred Years Of Lenni And Margot returns with another wonderfully joyful read." - Good Housekeeping, UK

"In Eddie Winston is Looking For Love, Marianne Cronin does a terrific job of balancing the divergent tones - the romance and tragedy of Bridie and Eddie's near-miss love story, and the comedy of Eddie and Bella's hijinks - to create a novel that feels abundant and intimate, messy and tragic, frustrating and joyful. Just like life." - Culturefly, UK

"A book that left us with a smile on our face!" - Bella (UK)

"This book was a pure joy. . . . A story of friendship, love, and discovering happiness." - Prima

"Uplifting." - Sainsbury's Magazine

"We don't have enough stories about nonagenarians. Or even octogenarians. Really, literature doesn't often feature protagonists past early retirement and it's a shame because once you've met Eddie, you'll want a lot more of it." - Anything Goes Lifestyle

"Warm, funny and life-affirming." - Fabulous

"The adventure of a lifetime." - Candis
