Summary

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER FROM THE BRITISH BOOK AWARD WINNING AUTHOR OF QUEENIE

If you could choose your family, you wouldn't choose the Penningtons

Dimple, Nikisha, Danny, Lizzie and Prynce are half-siblings who don't have much in common except abandonment issues. But when a catastrophic event forces them to reconnect with each other and with Cyril Pennington, the absent father they never really knew, things start to get complicated fast . . .

People Person is a propulsive story of heart, humour and homecoming, about the true nature of family and the complexities of belonging.

Perfect

Really good book with a brilliant sensitive reading by Danielle Vitalis- A pleasure to listen to. This should be televised as the dialogue is all there already.

Family link

I loved the story of how each sibling had their own story to tell however they were all still connected by pain and hope

Fabulous!

Another great book by Candice Carty-Williams, beautifully read by Danielle Vitalis. I loved Queenie and this was just as good. There were so many layers to this book, family, relationships, forgiveness, being a person of colour and trying to make it in a world of social media. A book I will read again to see what I missed first time round.

Great book to listen

Thoroughly enjoyed this book and the narrator. It was also nice to hear the spots in South London, it put a smile on my face as I listened. Can’t wait to read more from this author.
