Anybody Out There? By Marian Keyes #28 ****

From Amazon: Anna Walsh has returned to the bosom of her family in the Dublin suburbs to recuperate from the horrendous car accident that has left her with multiple fractures and a disfiguring scar across her face. Desperate to go back to New York and resume her normal life, she soon packs up her bags and returns to her job in beauty PR for punk cosmetics brand Candy Grrrl. A lonely and debilitated Anna leaves e-mails and phone messages for her mysteriously absent husband, Aidan, pleading for him to reply. [...] Meanwhile, she reminisces about their courtship and marriage while her kooky family (especially her Mum and hyperactive PI sister Helen) tries to buoy her spirits.

07/13/07 I'm usually a big chicken when it comes to fat books. I'm afraid to invest so much time on a so so book.

However, I just flew through this book about Anna Walsh and how she copes with a tragic car accident. As always Keyes can break your heart one minute and have you laughing out loud the next.
