Take Two

Author Danielle Hawkins

A brilliant, funny new novel from the bestselling, beloved Danielle Hawkins&#39;Take Two is that rare and special thing, a novel that is effortless to read – I sped through it in a day – but is also emotionally genuine and original. Danielle Hawkins is a natural storyteller with a light touch and she doesn&#39;t shy away from the gritty and the real. She is New Zealand&#39;s very own version of Marian Keyes.&#39; - Nicky PellegrinoSometimes you have to revisit your past to find your future.Laura and Doug were together for ages. Their breakup was just one of those things – she wanted children, he didn&#39;t, no hard feelings – at least not until, with their relationship barely cold in its grave, he got his new girlfriend pregnant.Now, seven years later, a polite social call to his parents lands Laura back in the family, helping Doug and his playboy younger brother to cope with a whole raft of crises. And what better time to re-evaluate your major life decisions than when you&#39;re wrangling a farm, a bookshop, two small children, your ex&#39;s wife in labour and his two sick parents? This is Danielle Hawkins&#39; best novel yet. Funny, tender and not afraid to tackle the big issues, it will have you laughing and shedding tears in equal measure. &quot;Hawkins is reliably kind, drily funny, and observant ... like Jane Austen in Red Band gumboots.&quot; - The New Zealand Herald.
