This is a review ofThe Diary Of A Hapless Father: months 0-3by Pete SortwellThis is an excellent book, and is the follow up toThe Diary Of An Expectant Fatheralso by Pete Sortwell.Like it's predecessor, this is a well-crafted story, bringing to life the characters, telling the story through the eyes of our hero Graham, as he begins coming to terms with the birth of his son, Charlie.I found this book to be ever so slightly less funny that the previous one, but it does deal, often in excruciating detail, with the trials and tribulations of having a new-born child to look after. It is, by turns, full of joy, tiredness, happiness, tiredness, pathos, and tiredness The story accurately depicts the life-changing effects that fatherhood bring.The book ends on a cliffhanger, so hopefully there witll be a third in the series in the not too distant future.5 stars (again).
