Beeping recommended!
My thanks to the good people at Quercus for sending the book. We also have a review of [[Summertime of the Dead by Gregory Hughes]].
If road trips and wonderful central characters are their thing, then we can also recommend [[Solace of the Road by Siobhan Dowd]], which also combines pathos and humour, and [[The Bride's Farewell by Meg Rosoff]], which has a romantic, fable-come-quest feel.
