The one part of Jo Brand that doesn't come across as big in her comedy is her heart. Or rather, didn't, until she did 'Getting On', when her world-weary nurse routine was beautifully tempered by compassion. Thankfully, her big heart does shine through here; this seems to have disappointed a lot of readers, expecting to scream with laughter at her dysfunctional upbringing which quite simply didn't exist. The only downside is that it has added fuel to the little fire that has been kindling at the back of my mind that I should switch my nurse training specialism from adult to mental health nursing. Yes, I know that it's really stupid to base your future career on the mere fact of liking a celebrity who used to do the same job. But still...
One of the best books I've read in a very long time.
I finished this book the same day I started it. I found it to be a good book because it reads like a conversation between the main character and God, Jesus and the Holy spirit. As you read through the book, you find that one of the lessons that comes through clearly is that those in power truly did not know what God is about. Throughout the book the main character tries to deal with something awful that happens to his child. He gets angry and blames God for all of the problems that this situation creates. It is a good book for people to sit down and see what a literal conversation with God may be like if one ever had a chance to hear Jesus, God and the Holy Spirit answer back like we talk as humans. The biggest lesson I got from this book is that God is reachable even as a human being and no matter how you get to God, He is still there.
