It's not long since I read [[Marriage Material by Sathnam Sanghera]] and I was convinced that it would be difficult to beat for the [[Costa Book Awards 2013|Costa First Novel Award 2013]] but ''The Shock of the Fall'' was the winner. I'm not convinced that it's a ''better'' books but I do know that it's a worthy winner.
