The story reaches effortlessly over several generations. I loved every moment of it. ''Marriage Material'' is shortlisted for the 2013 Costa First Novel Award and my fingers are very tightly crossed - this just might be my book of the year. From the same list we've also enjoyed [[Meeting the English by Kate Clanchy]].
