Publisher's Summary

Getting a life isn't always easy. And hanging on to it is even harder....

Jodi Taylor brings all her comic writing skills to this heartwarming tale of self-discovery.

Known as The Nothing Girl because of her severe stutter and chronically low self-confidence, Jenny Dove is only just prevented from ending it all by the sudden appearance of Thomas, a mystical golden horse only she can see. Under his guidance Jenny unexpectedly acquires a husband - the charming and chaotic Russell Checkland - and for her nothing will ever be the same again.With overprotective relatives on one hand and the world's most erratic spouse on the other, Jenny needs to become someone. And fast!

Fans of Jodi Taylor's best-selling Chronicles of St. Mary's series will adore the quirky humour in this new, contemporary novel. Jodi Taylor, International Woman of Mystery, spent some time working undercover for North Yorkshire County Library Service. Heavily disguised as the world's most incompetent facilities manager, she shifted dead dogs, fell out of mobile libraries, and spent far too much time in the gents' toilets. The idea to rewrite history first came to her while studying history A level at an evening class.

Just One Damned Thing After Another is her first novel and was originally self-published as an ebook; it was downloaded by more than 60,000 readers on Amazon.

Loved it

As a fan of The Chronicles of St Mary’s books, I was so happy to find this. I think it is the same narrator and she is terrific. Jodi Taylor really fleshes out her characters and I found myself sobbing a couple of times when listening to this. It’s pretty amazing to get so involved in another world. I am just about to start the next one, so fingers crossed.

😍 Lovely

A beautiful tale, perfectly narrated.

The only thing I struggled with, as I do with this authors writing style in other series, is the LONG drawn out hypothesis scenarios.

Wonderful

This is a wonderful warm story with an element of mystery that keeps you guessing till the end. Subjects of abuse and manipulation are gently woven into the story of self discovery and coming of age to create a truly mature piece of writing about human relationships, despite the interwoven fantasy friend.

Confused fun and magic

Jodi Taylor’s imagination is boundless. I can’t say I preferred this story to her St Mary’s Chronicles or Time Police, but it was an odd and entertaining filler.

An amusing light romance

This is a light romance novel which I found charming and sufficiently suspense-inducing to make me listen to the end. I really enjoyed Jodi Taylor's St Mary's series. This is nothing like that, but is well written and entertaining. The misunderstandings between the characters are well crafted.
