Format:Paperback
This book is extremely funny because of all the mad characters in it like vain Emily-Ann and stingy Nina. I love the way they all clash when they are sent to Marbella to compete for a luxury house. Having had many wild nights out in Peurto Banus, the nightclub and bar scenes really brought back memories. Marisa even mentions the kebab shop down near the port where the very late revellers always congegrate after a night out. I must say reading this was like being back down in Spain on my holidays. A perfect book to read in the dark days of winter and miserable British weather. Roll on next summer...

It's not often I pick up a book that makes me laugh out loud but when Caroline, the main character in this romantic comedy reaks (is that spelt right?)revenge on the horribly vain Richard, I laughed out loud in the staff canteen while people were giving me weird looks. The they all wanted to read the book. I hope to God I never meet a Richard and I don't even know why someonle like Caroline would have put up with him for so long but we all make mistakes I suppose. I bought this as I am a huge fan of Marisa's column in the Evening Herald and her articles always make me laugh. I'll now try and get my hands on a copy of Mr Right for the Night.

Having read Mackle's first novel Mr Right for the night, I was keen to get my hands on her latest offering for my summer hol's, and So Long Mr Wrong did not disapoint!
Laced with juicy character's such as nasty Richard and anoying Nena, Marisa manages to weave a plot around the most unlikly group of people to be hanging out together, then she throws them in the most glamourous of locations, Marbella, and waits for all hell to break loose- Brillant!
Using a million pound villa as the prize bate, Mackle lures her characters into her hilarous plot, where seven soposedly loved up couples are all competing for the price of the villa in a reality t.v show, called The Happiest Couple in Ireland!

Needless to say, the motly crew are the most dysfunctual group you could meet and are anything but in love with their spouses. But as the veiwing public has the power to vote them out, mock kisses and fake concern reign when the camera's role!
The heroine of the book, the lovely Caroline finds herself in this mess of a tv show when she signed up with her then fiancee- evil Richard to compete for the prize. But Richard had his wicked way with Caroline's best friend, Sandra on his Stag night, leaving her pregnant, and for legal reasons Caroline canot back out out of competeing in the show, dispite the fact she'd rather strangle Richard then kiss him. Throw in the rest of the couples and you've got the most intrigueing and hillarous plot I have read in a long time.
A funny read which will keep you guessing until the last page.

Funny, light-hearted beach read.
I read this on holidays and it made me laugh out loud. Some of the characters are funny and a bit OTT but this isn't a book to be taken seriously. Read more

A sad follow up to Mr. Right for the night.
I have to say I cannot relate to the descriptions such as 'hysterically funny' 'gunfire plot' or 'wonderful charachters' reported to be among the pages of this novel. Read more
