Looking after a dog is one thing, but looking after a dead dog is a different matter altogether, especially for a stranger in London.

When a waitress from a Cornish fish restaurant lands an audition for a West End show, she can't believe her luck. The only catch is that she has to look after a pet dog in exchange for board.

She soon finds herself trying to juggle auditions, the demise of a long-term relationship and a blossoming fling, all whist hiding a sinister secret concealed within her suitcase.

A novella by number 1 bestselling humorous fiction author, Rosen Trevithick. ~ 15,000 words.

5,0 su 5 stelle Great story! A wild romp of a read!! A+++
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 7 novembre 2015

This story is simply a whole lot of fun!! Even though the only thing that I have in common with the heroine is that we are both female (I'm a 61 year old Israeli/American), she was so incredibly REAL in dealing with each and every catastrophe (that were described so exceptionally well by the author that I felt like I was there in the story with her!), that I had no trouble at all identifying with her and caring about what happens to her.

The writing style was very smooth and flowed easily from beginning to end and (I'm happy to say), the editing was also excellent, so there were no spelling or grammar mistakes to interrupt my enjoyment of reading the story. I especially loved the dialogues which I could actually hear as voices in my head and all the people sounded different, as they should! In the same way, all the characters, even the minor ones, had very clear and distinct personalities. (I even had a take on Peaches' personality - and he's already dead!! 😉)

This is definitely one book you do not want to miss and I recommend that you buy and read it ASAP! In fact, if you need a gift for a special occasion, or want to do something nice for your friend, or just know someone who could use a good laugh, I recommend that you buy an extra copy. Happy Reading! 😻

5,0 su 5 stelle Entertaining twist on an urban legend
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 4 settembre 2012

There's a story that does the rounds. Everyone in London knows someone who has a friend who had a mate who was housesitting for some wealthy friends of their family. While the homeowners were away, their beloved pet dog died, and so this friend of a distant acquaintance stuffs the dog into a suitcase so they can dispose of its body. On the Tube... well, let's just say that when I saw the cover to "London, the Doggy and Me" I assumed Rosen Trevithick was merely writing down an urban legend that I've been hearing in the capital since at least 2009.

Although Rosen's book is clearly inspired by this apocryphal story, however, her tale of an aspiring actress beset on all sides during a trip to London to audition for her dream role expands the story far beyond its origins as a tall tale for late nights in the pub. The actress's mortifying experience in a West End theatre, her very brief love triangle between Neanderthal Derek and new neighbour Rick, and her surprising discoveries in the house she is looking after all combine to produce a brief but entertaining tale.

Well-written and sometimes very funny, London, the Doggy and Me is well worth a read.

4,0 su 5 stelle Very British, very evocative, sad, funny, and fun
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 19 agosto 2014

The voice is so smoothly British, downtrodden and sweet. The train to London is so very authentic, even to being very authentically late. Paddington station was never so seductive (but I do remember my first vision of Euston and feeling like I’d gone to heaven). The tube is crowded. And this book is just plain fun!

Then there’s the dog, the audition, the boyfriend, and the wonderfully prim and proper couple Steph has agreed to dog and house-sit for. The audition, to be fair, goes slightly better than the dog-sitting, but not much. And the boyfriend’s too busy playing computer games to care. But these characters are fun, the adventure is zany and wild, the phone sings “Feed me” while everyone else goes hungry, and the reader has a grand introduction to West End fever. As for the dog... it doesn’t suffer.

Disclosure: I learned it was free, read the first page and couldn’t stop.

4,0 su 5 stelle A neat story that delivers
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 10 settembre 2014
Acquisto verificato
Review policy: if I can't award 3 or more stars then I don't post a review. I mark on technical considerations; I will not slate a book just because I don't like a genre or a story, unlike many people who post so-called "honest" reviews. If I feel there's an issue then I will try to contact the author for clarification. Fairness, not vindictive point-scoring, is how I work.

The review:

This is a neat little story about a young woman who, well, travels to London from Cornwall in true British fish-out-of-water style. The whole promo copy tells you the kind of genre it is so there should be no misunderstandings (which is what has happened with some of the reviewers, I'm sorry to say), and it certainly lived up to my expectations.

I didn't laugh at every page, nor did I expect to; we all take humour differently and I'm not so easy to amuse—but I can say that, had I watched this as a 30-minute one-off television comedy, then due to the story's atmosphere and delivery I would have enjoyed it AND wanted to transfer it to DVD so I could get it out to watch again in future. And that's how I feel about the book: it's a good piece of escapism.

In other words, it delivered.

It was nice to read a book that wasn't filled with descriptions of the scenery &/or weather. it covered everything important in the story without having to fill many, many pages with descriptions!
I liked it a lot.
