I had the audiobook read by James Killeen, I love his accent.

A feel good humorous book with the formation of an unlikely friendship between Frank a grumpy old man, struggling after the death of his wife and Red a six year old boy who moves in next door, he is struggling after the separation of his parents. There’s a link between Red’s mom and the new neighbours too.

The writing style is just ace!
It had me chuckling and snorting Frank is hilarious, he doesn’t mean to be 😂Red is like the energiser bunny and very persistent.
It’s not just funny, it’s moving too, as the reader learns more about Frank and Red’s lives. I love the presence of Marcie who is the total opposite to Frank.

Just a warning, it’s a funny feel good, but the target audience is very much adult as it contains a fair bit of bad language.
It’s my first candidate in my books of 2024
