Heading South

by Catherine Richards, Luke Bitmead

Heading South is a novel of two parts written by different authors, one depicting the animal-loving painter Cassie and the other the good-humoured Nick, still reeling from being dumped by his fiancee. Can the two ever get together as they are plagued by ex-girlfriends, posh admirers, pets passing away and friends going into labour? This is a hilarious comedy also featuring three dogs, two cats, a pony and a mallard.

Chick-lit

[Nick Davies · Rating 2 out of 5]

An interesting idea, with co-authors writing the male and female viewpoints of a modern romance novel, but the female character was either a dreadfully written stereotype of what women think about, or I just don't understand the lady gender. Nevertheless, as cliche-ridden as it was, some of it had merit.
