Product Description
Ed Middleton is ecstatic: he's just got engaged to his girlfriend, Sam, and he couldn't be happier. At least, he thinks he's engaged. The thing is, it was Sam who did the proposing, and the more he thinks about it, the less he's sure that she was actually asking him to marry her. She could have just been asking the question, you know...hypothetically. As the wedding day draws nearer, Ed becomes more and more uneasy. Sam keeps disappearing off for furtive meetings and private phone calls, and when he spies her going into a pub with a man he's never seen before, all his old jealousies and insecurities threaten to re-surface. It's the perfect time for Ed's unhinged ex-girlfriend, Jane, to show up on his doorstep. Meanwhile, Dan - Ed's best-friend and soon-to-be-best-man - is determined to throw him a stag night to remember. And when a severely hung-over Ed wakes up the morning after the night before to see a second dent in the pillow, it seems as if Dan has got his wish. Will Ed manage to find out the truth about his stag night as well as the identity of Sam's secret man? Or will an accidental proposal lead them both down the aisle to a wedding neither of them ever imagined?

Format:Paperback
I have just read this book, as enjoyable as the others. I seldom write reviews on Amazon, but this deserves a 5* because it is well observed, written in a fast and witty pace; one feels involved with the main characters and Brighton. It is a delightful insight in what really goes on in a man's mind and there are wonderful one liners.
It is also rare that later books are as good as the previous ones, so for those who already know this author and are hesitating to buy this one, please go ahead you will not be disappointed! For those who wish to discover an author who, put very simply, knows how to write and entertain, I definitely recommend!

Ed Middleton gets engaged, but it was his Girlfriend Sam that asked him "casually" he's not sure if she meant it or she was just being curious. He rushes out and buys her a very expensive Engagement Ring, he wants the wedding as soon as possible, he wants traditional, Sam just wants a quiet wedding in a Registry Office, he pushes her for a date and agree on 3 weeks away, although she doesn't seem enthusiastic. Ed's Ex Jane is back on the scene; Ed gets a little suspicious of Sam and thinks she may be having an affair. Ed takes advice from his best friend Dan, he puts Dan in charge of organising the Stag Night and the Entertainment for the wedding, he warns Dan he wants everything to go smoothly and he wants no "funny business".
When Ed wakes up after his Stag night wondering if he has been unfaithful, as he is sure he heard someone sneak out of the room, he is left wondering if he has been unfaithful, but doesn't remember anything. Does Ed find out the truth? Does the wedding go ahead as planned?
I have never read any books by Matt Dunn, This book had very good reviews and I am pleased to say I loved it, I laughed throughout the whole book. I would definitely recommend this book, it's easy to read and follow, I couldn't put it down and I will be looking out for more books by this author.

Matt Dunn's last book was far too long, and that is also true of this latest offering. Some great one-liners, but way too shallow a story to pad out to 350+ pages. It seems to go on forever.

Long winded
I have to agree with some of the negative comments. I was expecting a good read here but in the end I felt the author just had to get some words onto paper to fill the book. Read more

Very little tops The Ex-Boyfriend's Handbook...
But this one came close. Very funny, a real 'page-turner', and the bit with the fat suit had me sniggering for ages. Read more
