After eight years together, Lil Bailey thought she’d already found ‘the one’ - that is, until he dumped her for a blonde 20-something colleague. So she does what any self-respecting singleton would do: swipes right, puts on her best bra and finds herself on a first date with a handsome mountaineer called Max. What’s the worst that can happen? Well it’s pretty bad actually. First Max ghosts her and then, after weeing on a stick (but mostly her hands), a few weeks later Lil discovers she’s pregnant.

Fabulous. I love this author.
Where does Better Together rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Certainly one of th best in this genre. I suppose it is chic lit, but its so beautiful written. The characters have great depth. There are many intelligent threads and not a word is wasted. I not big on chic lit. Therefore, the cover and title of this book made me pass it over for a while. I finally purchased it after loving another of O'Flanagan's entitled He's Got to
Go. It was so good that I wanted more written by her. I realise now that I will buy, and probably love, everything she writes.
Any additional comments?
I have listened to this narrator before, but she was faultless.

A lovely listen - Wonderful Irish Narraror
Would you consider the audio edition of Better Together to be better than the print version?
As I don't get time to read, I always opt for the audio version so I can listen it it in the car when driving for work
What was one of the most memorable moments of Better Together?
Hearing the story unfold of Pauldy o'Malley and past events
What does Aoife MacMahon bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
She was marvellous! Distinctive accents for each of the characters and told the story beautifully - a joy to listen too. She is on a par with Caroline Lennon whom is also superb
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Nothing specifically without giving the plot away - well worth a listen though
Any additional comments?
I did find the first few chapters a little rambling and I could see myself drifting off in parts but then the main crux of the book kicked in and I was hooked. I listened to the whole book in a few days!

Annoying
A really annoying "heroine" spoilt a good yarn! Beautifully read and performed. Not one of her better stories.
