'Genuinely unputdownable books are rare in my experience. This is one. A brilliant, original comedy' Daily Mailbr/>br/>'I loved The Adults! Funny, dry and beautifully observed. Highly recommended for anyone whose perfect Christmases never quite go according to plan!'br/>Gill Sims, #1 bestselling author of Why Mummy Drinks and Why Mummy Swears br/>br/>* * * * *br/>br/>MEET THE ADULTS...br/>br/>Claire and Matt are divorced but decide what's best for their daughter Scarlett is to have a 'normal' family Christmas with them all together.br/>br/>Claire brings her new boyfriend Patrick, a seemingly eligible Iron-Man-in-Waiting. br/>Matt brings the new love of his life Alex, funny, smart, and extremely patient. br/>Scarlett, their daughter, brings her imaginary friend Posey. He's a rabbit.br/>br/>Together the five (or six?) of them grit their teeth over Organized Fun activities, drinking a little too much after bed-time, oversharing classified secrets about their pasts and, before they know it, their holiday is a powder keg that ends - where this story starts - with a tearful, frightened, call to the police...br/>br/>But what happened? They said they'd all be adults about this...br/>br/>* * * * *br/>br/>'Such a breath of fresh air! Witty, intensely human and (dare I say it) relatable ... The perfect comedy of errors' Katie Khanbr/>br/>'The Adults is my top read of 2018 so far. Absolutely hilarious ... This one will stay with me for a long time' Cathy Bramley br/>br/>'Packed with sharp wit, engaging characters and off-beat humour, this is a fresh and feisty thrill-ride of a novel' Heatbr/>br/>'I took this book on holiday and couldn't put it down! I've never read anything quite like it' The Unmumsy Mumbr/>br/>'Gripped me from the start. Reminiscent of Liane Moriarty's Big Little Lies - a sure-fire winner' br/>Cass Hunter, author of The After Wifebr/>br/>'Brilliantly funny - will have you wincing in recognition' Good Housekeepingbr/>br/>'I have a feeling Caroline Hulse might be a genius, this book is so brilliant. t's funny, clever and original - I loved every minute of reading it. Also, Posey should get a spin-off TV show' Lucy Vine, author of Hot Messbr/>br/>'Funny, poignant, real - a truly original book that made me laugh, cry and cringe in equal measure. I loved it' Charlotte Duckworthbr/>br/>'Razor-sharp comedy - barbed and brilliant. The characters are totally convincing ... Sparky, heart-felt and fantastically fun, this is a fabulous debut' Sunday Mirror
