I've been watching this one in two minds about whether or not I might like it.

It takes place over three days at a rich American family's holiday home on an island in New England, where the eldest daughter is getting married.

I'm not recommending it, because I haven't read it but it seems to be getting good reviews so I've decided to give it a try.

I hated. Sounded great. Was A Bit Shit

Oh it's you! Hi

Hello

Do you think everyone else has gone and it's just us rattling around in here?

That was my worry, it sounded great but there was just a nagging doubt I couldn't quite put my finger on. I think my head was turned by the lobster on the cover, because The Rosie Project is nagging at me in the same way and I'm sure I won't like it if I read it.

Anyway, I've bought it already, but I might not rush to read it now.

Well a lobster can be most persuasive.

You can't fight a lobster. Well, you can try, but they get you in the end.

I had a terrible moment in TK Maxx once, when I confused the word orchid with the word oyster and ended up blurring the two and asking how much were the plastic lobsters in their fake flower display.
