About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Ignored. Overlooked. But they're about to prove everyone wrong...

Janet Pimm is used to being invisible. 70 something, with her beloved allotment for company, she simply doesn't need anyone else.

But when the local council threaten to close the allotments, Janet will do anything she can to try to save them - even enlisting the help of her irritatingly upbeat and interfering neighbour, Bev.

As the two women set off on a journey together, Janet begins to realise that perhaps she isn't so happy to blend into the background after all. And that maybe there's more to Bev than she first thought. As they fight to save the place Janet loves most, both women find their voice again and no one can silence them now...

A story of friendship, community spirit and the importance of connection.

Women of a. certain age!

l enjoyed the emerging friendship of two very different women who had both reached something of a stalemate in their lives. They both brought out strengthsbin each other that were hidden beneath the surface but couldn't have found on their own. The threat to their treasured allotment gave them a focus and made a good storyline with warmth and humour.

A beautiful, heartwarming book

This story is the firm, safe, warm embrace of a mum or an aunt that has so much to tell you if you’ll listen.

An incredibly well-written book that feels like a lesson in plants, women’s health, and self respect, whilst still having you smiling, laughing, and crying throughout.

I covered this audiobook over two days.
On one walk to work, I ALMOST cried. (I stopped myself because I can’t be crying in the streets like that).
The next day at work, after finishing it, I found myself laughing over remembering something that had happened.

It has it all.

Despite this, I still feel a certain grounding since finishing the audiobook. I see my mother through these characters and feel like I’ve been told things about her that she probably won’t ever feel the need to tell me about because, to her, it’s just normal, but to me it’s understanding why she’s sweating in a cold room and becoming frustrated by all the lackadaisical advice I know she’s been given just because nobody cares enough to try and do better. May this book be a step in many’s lives to care just a little more.

Brava.

A little different .

A very pleasant listen . Took a little while to get going but it was fun and thought provoking when it took off . The reader had a good repertoire and there was humour too .
Very enjoyable .

excellent story

I enjoyed this very much. I think the narrator did a really good job. I could really imagine how the characters looked. I actually laughed out loud at some of the humourous quips!
