Annie, who penned the children's series Grim Tales for Mayall with Anthony Horowitz for ITV and Channel 4, based on the fairytales by The Brothers Grimm, travelled extensively and also wrote several books about the countries she had visited. Honest, raw, surprising, life-affirming, and because it's Jo Caulfield, of course, it's very, very funny. She navigates the treacherous waters of bereavement and its unpredictable behaviour and emotions in this open, funny, sad, wry and highly readable gem' -- Jo Brand 'Excellent writing with heart, truth and comedy rolled into one important journey' -- Helen Lederer 'Sweet, brutal, funny, intimate and totally compelling, this is a brilliant meditation on grief and sisterhood - and a celebration of the seemingly inconsequential details and random moments that bind us to each other' -- Viv Groskop 'If this book was just a eulogy, that would be more than enough reason to say that you must read this, but it offers readers so much more.

By delving into their shared past she gives us an honest and unflinching portrait of her older sister, strong-headed, funny, vibrant, inventive, vulnerable and acerbic. Or is the comic who prides herself on lashing idiots with her tongue – her show carrying on as she inwardly mourns the victims of the Manchester Arena bombing or her fading sister – a more 'authentic' performer? When Annie does the unthinkable and dies, leaving Jo behind, the depth of her grief shines a light on the genuine and joyful relationship they shared.

My husband, who thankfully made it through his, and my cousin, who sadly lost her life before her time too. Jo has captured her big sister's sense of humour and humanity beautifully' -- Lenny Henry 'Laughter isn't just for the good times.

Acerbic, incapable of small talk and unwilling to suffer fools gladly, neither sister could be said to lack emotional intelligence based on their writing – but expressing it was another matter.
