Review:
I've just finished this book and not sure if it's a work of genius or if it missed the point a bit.
There are three main characters and each of their lives has been affected to a greater or lesser extent by the (anti) hero of the title Paddy De Courcy. Two of the three, Grace and Marnie, are sisters and their stories are linked and are very powerful. They also know Alicia, the much less interesting fourth woman. Lola, she of the irritating diary prose, I think belonged in a different book. She's very funny and charming in her own right but her situation never rings true and I can't help thinking she was put in for some light relief. She really adds nothing to the main plot and her 'heartbreak' is not convincing. I also thought the whole politics storyline was weak.
There is a second theme to the book, and that's addiction and this is described absolutely brilliantly.
I love Marian Keyes' writing, and I looked forward to picking this book up every evening. She has the knack of creating characters you feel you really know, and for that alone it's worth reading this book.
