What Readers are Saying about There's Something About Gary:
- “A hilarious, mile-a-minute ride alongside well-drawn characters with great friendships and a bit of romance on the side. Margaret never fails to deliver!”
���Thanks, Margaret, for this wonderful character. Sometimes I think she’s me!”
“The problems (Val) encounters are so weird, only her brain could go that route. She is paranoid, but honest. Weird but wonderful. Her friends are a real hoot. I don't know where she finds them, but I want some too. They are so much fun!”
“Weird and quirky, that's Val. Wonderful read (for) anyone needing a good laugh and an adventure into the weird.”
“I have read many of the Val Fremden books, and whilst events in past books have led her to this point it is possible to read each book as a standalone. However, I urge you to read this fun series, Val is a totally unique character, fun, slightly mad and definitely old enough to behave better (but she doesn't!).”
“Margaret's observations and witty turn of phrase make this book a laugh-a-minute (Val describes her new colleague 'looks like Lurch's psychotic teenage offspring'!).”
