A flatshare when you are in your sixties?

Philip, Ricarda, Harry, Eckart and Uschi have different reasons for the flat sharing (like Philip fancying Ricarda, Eckert feeling alone, Harry feeling upset with his daughter's do-gooder boyfriend etc.). But they seems to get together well when sharing a flat - and while in the first days they experience small misunderstandings, they also have a great fun. Then one of them suffers a stroke. They decide to care for the patient - yet, this os hard. And they are not even a family!

While I would love for this novel to have a harsh editor (as the plot gets uneven in some places and the situations can get the shallow way), I also appreciate the message of creating a family of your own choices. No one is an island and we can gain more when we are willing to overstep the boundaries of our very personal box we are living in.

Really enjoyable read. Good characters and a Good story. Well worth a read. Think others will. Enjoy

Such a lovely book. It's refreshing when a simple tale is told well. Lovely summer read.
