Watermelon

Watermelon by Marian Keyes is a funny, heartfelt novel about love, betrayal, family, and starting over. On the very day Claire Walsh gives birth to her first child, her husband James announces that he has been having an affair—and leaves.

Shocked, exhausted, and furious, Claire returns home to her parents, baby Kate in tow. There, she is surrounded by her eccentric family, including sisters Helen and Anna, as she tries to rebuild her confidence and figure out what comes next. When James reappears wanting another chance, Claire must decide whether to return to the life she thought she wanted or move forward on her own terms.

Warm, witty, and emotionally honest, Watermelon is a great choice for readers who enjoy women’s fiction, family drama, romantic comedy, and stories about resilience and second chances.
