“Clever, emotional and thought-inspiring” Jenny Colgan

‘Haig is one of the most inspirational popular writers on mental health of our age and, in his latest novel, he has taken a clever, engaging concept and created a heart-warming story that offers wisdom in the same deceptively simple way as Mitch Albom’s best tales’ Independent

‘A brilliant premise and great fun’ Daily Mail

‘[A] highly original, thought-provoking novel about the importance of appreciating the life you have’ Independent

 ‘A tale of second chances and living with regrets . . . Very engaging . . . There’s an addictive element of voyeurism as you sample Nora’s different lives through her eyes and it leaves you wondering if regrets are worth the emotional labour that we invest in them’ Stylist
