Simply put this book is a great read, it has lots of really lovely funny light hearted moments but then it has surprisingly deep dark and quite frankly disturbing moments. I was a little bit slow off the mark with this book and it took me a good few chapters before I realised that there was actually a very dark side to this book. If I am honest Marian Keyes can be a little bit hit and miss for me, some of her books I adored, This Charming Man was one of them.
Set in Ireland this books covers a variety of different characters and storylines. From Politician's to Transgender, Domestic abuse and of course a hob knob of beloved small Irish country town characters finishing off with a touch of romance. This book is a must read.
