The House of Paris Le Grand
DRAG QUEENS, ECCENTRIC OLD LADIES and a BUCKET LIST
What more could you want from this delicious new romcom from Nicholas Robinson, which promises a barrel full of laughter as well as a gripping narrative about a middle-aged woman’s journey of self-discovery.
This truly is a romcom like no other, filled with humour as well as genuine emotion and heart-wrenching moments as Sophie Defoy sets out on the adventure of a lifetime to discover who she really is.
Helped along the way by drag queen Paris Le Grand and her eccentric mother Beryl, Sophie throws away her well used rulebook in a bid to find everything she has been missing out on for the past forty-four years.
Of course, things kick off to a great start as Sophie ticks tasks from the bucket list she desperately wrote many years ago while divorcing her husband. But then it all gets messy when a handsome stranger enters the mix.
For a few months, Sophie lives life as someone she never thought she’d be able to be, but when push comes to shove, the question of whether she’s really changed at all comes to the surface.
Join Sophie on her quest to unlock the woman who has been hiding within; laugh as her batty mother Beryl enters bizarre situations unannounced; and see how Paris Le Grand encourages his dull new friend to blossom.

A lovely funny read! Couldn't put it down.
An insight into the difficulties of living life with depression, but coloured with humour and of course, drag queens!
