About this listen
From best-selling Irish writer Faith Hogan, The Ladies' Midnight Swimming Club is an emotional story about finding new friends and living life to the fullest, that will appeal to fans of Sheila O'Flanagan, Heidi Swain and Liz Fenwick.
When Elizabeth's husband dies, leaving her with crippling debt, the only person she can turn to is her friend, Jo. Soon Jo has called in her daughter, Lucy, to help save Elizabeth from bankruptcy. Leaving her old life behind, Lucy is determined to make the most of her fresh start. As life slowly begins to return to normal, these three women, thrown together by circumstance, become fast friends. But then Jo's world is turned upside down when she receives some shocking news. In search of solace, Jo and Elizabeth find themselves enjoying midnight dips in the freezing Irish Sea. Here they can laugh, cry and wash away all their fears. As well as conjure a fundraising plan for the local hospice that will bring the whole community together....

Theme of friendship
I loved the relationships throughout the various clicks of people. It covered important issues such as the plight of unmarried mothers decades ago and the ghastly behaviour they endured not knowing what happened to their child. Also the themes of homosexuality and gambling addiction were presented in some form. Obviously, apart from Jo’s end the book wrapped up loose ends into tidy deals. Niall realising what he actually has. Elizabeth and her financial concerns and Lucy attaining what she many years before had seen to be her aspiration. In the rings, is there a relationship about to blossom between Dan and Lucy?

A charming listen
Listened to this free so my expectations were low. However I thought the whole experience was charming. Engaging and not syrupy and very well read.
Would thoroughly recommend.

A Melancholy Tale
A sad story with a lovely ending, if somewhat predictable. Enjoyed the journey. Would recommend.
