WINNER OF BEST AUTHOR READ AWARD - FESTIVAL OF ROMANCE At 3.10pm every weekday, parents gather at Featherstone Primary in Denbury to collect their children. For a special few, the friendships forged at the school gates will see them through lives filled with drama, secrets and sorrows. When Yummy Mummy Alana reveals the identity of her love-child's father, she doesn't expect the consequences to be quite so extreme. Ex Czech au-pair Earth Mummy Dana finds happiness in her secret sideline, but really all she longs for is another child. Slummy Mummy Mo's wife-beating husband leads her down a path she never thought possible, and Supper Mummy Joan has to cope when life deals her a devastating blow. And what of Gay Daddy Gordon? Will he be able to juggle parenthood and cope with his broken heart at the same time? Four very different mothers. One adorable dad. And the intertwining trials and tribulations that a year at the primary school gates brings

5,0 su 5 stelle Brilliant!

A new author for me, and I loved this book! As it usually happens, I could not put it down, and finished it in the small hours. I just had to get to the end.
A Richard Curtis film with more than a sprinkle of Desperate Housewives.
Sad truths behind a story with a happy ending of course, but with a bittersweet aftertaste of reality.
You'll love it even if you don't have children of your own.
I will definitely look for other books from this author!

5,0 su 5 stelle wonderful and funny read!

Was a great read albeit a little slow and confusing in the begining. Very entertaining as well. I can relate to some of the characters here. The writer may not have her own kids to experience herself. But she manage to capture the sense of how hectic and demanding life could get with school going children, which I really apreciate.

At the school gates really tells us of the different lives mothers or fathers whom we normally see and chat with outside the school gates. They may look great etc but one will never know what is behind each and every parents' story. This book really capture the sense of that. Most importantly the sense of friendship/companionship/solidarity amongst parents is what gets us through the day.

There are really funny scenes: pretty little au pair and recently jilted gay dad, sad: loosing a husband after having him back, narrowing: married mum and bistro owner getting it on etc. All worth the read to find out.

Fabulous Book Fiend
5,0 su 5 stelle A true representation!

I was really looking forward to this book, not just because I am a teacher who stands welcoming parents at the school gate every morning! This author hooks the reader into the story straight away, introducing each of the families featured in the book, as if each family is a character in itself, I really enjoyed the opening and felt immersed in what was going on in the story right from the word go. It was fabulous as well because each of the families was a completely different unit, realistically representing each of the families that meet at school gates all over the country every morning, Nicola May did really well to portray this so realistically!

The setting of the school was also completely realistic, based on a real school that made me quite jealous, it sounded so lovely. I'm not normally a massive fan of novels that aren't set in big cities, but I found this setting really easy to picture as the community as a whole was described really well. Once I had been hooked in by the initial character introductions, the novel carried on being a total page turner! The characters' stories were relatable but there were so many twists and turns I found myself gasping out loud! I laughed at parts, especially some of the school commits parts that I could totally recognise, but I shed a few tears too. Parts of every day life are dealt with that might make the reader uncomfortable, but they do happen every day to people like this and so I completely understand them being included in the book!

This was a fabulous,y easy read that has a bit of everything in, a bit like a really meaty soap opera with a bit of extra feeling behind it. I would love to find out what happens next to some of the characters as they move on, perhaps the teacher featured in the book could have a story of his own to tell? Whether you experience The School Gates on a daily basis or not, I think you will find something to enjoy within the pages of this book!

The charactors I met at The School Gate had a real world feel, with universally understood problems,told in a way reminiscent of Maeve Binchy.

5,0 su 5 stelle An excellent contempory read

I have to be honest, this is the first book by this author that I have read. I have seen many wonderful 5* reviews for her previous books, but sadly I never quite got to read any. I was delighted to be asked to review books for the Festival of Romance 2012 and this was one of the books to feature in the selection. Not only was it entered but also won!

As the synopsis states, this book is all about the lives of 5 families that all attend the same school and meet at the gates every weekday. The one thing they have in common is that they have children that attend the same school. Here ends the similarities of each of these mothers and fathers.

Straight away you get caught up in the lives of each of the families, whether it is the mother and her daily struggles, the father and his complex work/home life balance. As you read on, each family has its own problems, not that you would know if you were at the School Gates... Paint on a smile and hide your troubles!

Nicola has written a wonderful and very engaging novel with lots of plot twists that you don't see coming. There are many humourous elements to it but also a lot of emotion and turmoil. It is not a light chicklit in the general sence but a book with some substance and very much something that will hook you in. I was totally engrossed in the each of their little worlds and how they all interconnect in surprising ways. For me, there were a lot of characters and I was confused a couple of times who was who, but that says more about me than the quality of the writing and I certainly won't be taking any stars away for that!

An excellent contemporary read and has now certainly made me want to read more by this author.
