The Woman Who Went to Bed For a Year

[onelittlefish]

Has anyone read this book yet. Sue Townsend - it is about a woman who goes to bed for a year. I love the concept of going to bed for a year and have started threatening DH that I will do it.

I am about half way through it and it is a great read.

Is it funny?

I was really looking forward to it but was disappointed.

I am enjoying. It is definitely light and not intended to be taken seriously.

I've just finished this book today. I read half of it last night when I couldn't sleep, and the rest this morning.

I really enjoyed it. I liked the pointlessness of it all. I have to say I wasn't hugely impressed by the second half of it - it got a bit too over-the-top at times, I found. Overall, I liked it though. I like the ending too, but don't want to comment on that, as you're still reading it!

I would love to go to bed for a year.

Hmm, just read this (book group choice as not normally my kind of thing at all) v broad farce, no subtlety and not particularly funny either
