WHEN WE WERE YOUNG is such a warm, uplifting read. It's a
celebration of the bond we have with our oldest friends, and it's
so funny, without ever losing its poignancy - Richard Roper writes
humour so brilliantly.
*Beth O'Leary*
Following up the wonderfully heartwarming 'Something To Live For',
Richard Roper is two for two with 'When We Were Young', an equally
absorbing and heartfelt tale of past mistakes and friendship lost
but never forgotten. Wholly relatable, with a compelling central
pair, this novel will take you back to your past and might make you
think about making some changes to your present. A joyful summer
read.
*Owen Nicholls, author of LOVE, UNSCRIPTED*
A funny and heartwarming story.
*FABULOUS*
A funny, breezy summer read that digs deep into the richly fertile
territory of male friendship... The tone is acutely funny, like a
hard-hitting buddy movie dreamed up by Nick Hornby and David
Nicholls... Roper is very good on the truths men hide from
themselves as well as from each other.
*METRO*
A lovely read.
*BELLA*
A beautifully written comedy with strong Withnail And I
overtones.
*DAILY MAIL*
Quirky and moving, we iove this tale of secrets and the bittersweet
realities of growing up.
*TAKE A BREAK*
Heartbreaking yet uplifting
*WOMAN'S WEEKLY*
Nothing will make you want to grab and hug your best mate more than
this heart-warming tale.
