Currently Between Husbands

Reviews

'Cathrine has such a unique voice, with self-deprecating humour that has made me laugh from the day I met her 20 years ago. It’s time the rest of the world got to laugh along and her stories.' 'I adore Cath, to blazon her self-deprecation in such an endearing way encapsulates the courageous and hilarious woman she is.' 'Currently Between Husbands is like watching Robbie William’s pash a fan on stage at his concert. Sometimes awkward, kinda hot, very funny but mainly you spend the whole time wishing it was you. Even in her darkest moments, Cathrine lives a life fuller than the rest of us put together. Smart, beautiful and wise. Consider my pelvic floor muscles tested. She’s the best friend you’ll want for life, but you’ll have to fight me for her.' 'Desperately funny, fearless and full of heart.' 'Cathrine has this uncanny ability to write in a way that makes you feel like you are sitting down with your best friend having a cup of tea. I laughed, cried and had so much fun reading every word. This book is more than a memoir, it is the companion every woman needs beside her as she navigates life, love and everything in between.' 'It is a page-turning wild, spiritual, ridiculously funny, candid, generous, raw and crystal-fuelled adventure.' 'You don't have to be divorced to love this book – it's simply a story about love and life. We all need a Cath in our girl tribe, she is unfiltered, gets what it's like to try and find "the one," and will make you do that snort-laugh thing that you can only do around your girlfriends.' 'Cathrine Mahoney is the girlfriend we all need. Pour yourself a vodka (that's enough soda, thanks!) and get ready for a hilarious and honest take on life, love and starting over.' 'Finally someone who has the guts to spill on all the crap you have to deal with when a marriage ends and the weird, hilarious and intriguing world of what’s thrown at you when "between husbands."' 'Feels like Cathrine is a few glasses of wine in, unfiltered, and open-heartedly telling you her story and owning it all. Inspirational and funny.' 'Wildly inappropriate, a massive over-sharer, honest to goodness hilarious – Cathrine makes the ups and downs of life, marriage, divorce and parenthood side-splittingly funny.' 'One of the funniest people I know writes exactly as she speaks – with laugh-out-loud observations, self-deprecating humour and wry insights into all aspects of a woman’s journey through life.' 'Cathrine is hands down the funniest, cheekiest, most quick-witted woman I know! She is a natural conversationalist; she is the woman who walks into a room full of strangers and walks out with a bunch of new best friends. In her own charming way, she pushes the boundaries, all the while leaving her audience in stitches. She is inspiring, uplifting, light-hearted yet thought-provoking, and always makes me laugh!' 'My dear friend Cath is hilarious, kind, smart and warm-hearted. Her sharp wit, and unfiltered commentary on life makes this book a must read! I can't wait for the movie!' 'I laughed and cried with Cath as she opened up about the breakdown of her marriage (spoiler alert). Anyone who has ever dated will know what it's like to dust yourself off and try to find yourself again after the end of a relationship. You may or may not have found the one, but you will fall in love with Cath and her quintessentially English sense of humour, self-deprecation, and propensity to overshare.' 'I love my catch ups with Cathrine.... My sides hurt by the end of the night. She is one funny lady.' 'Cath writes as she speaks … she’s unfiltered, ridiculously funny but also heart-warmingly honest. It’s what makes her and this book so refreshing and so fabulous, but just a warning… you will laugh - LOOOOUDLY ! Don’t say I didn't warn you!'  '[O]utrageously funny and, at times, deeply honest.' 'There is one question I have asked Cath 100 times over, “Did that really happen?” Cath’s stories are like a Viennetta ice cream with the three layers being, disbelief, blunt honesty and brilliant storytelling. To add to that, it’s bloody funny and you’re left wanting more. No one else I know can share a story like Cath. I’m looking forward to the TV show.' 'My all-time favourite movie is Bridget Jones – to anoint a real-life version is a big deal – but Cathrine Mahoney is Bridget to a tee. I’d pay to read a post it note she wrote, let alone a book. Cathrine’s ability to be funny, clever, relatable, self-deprecating and just so loveable is unlike anyone I’ve ever met.' 'Cathrine Mahoney has the rare ability to capture our emotions in an all of the fucked-up’d-ness and fabulous feels of 2022 after a horrendous couple of years. I was a fan of Adrian Mole growing up as a kid and just like those books did with a pimply teen navigating life in 1980s UK, Cath has captured the human spirit of a 40-something-year-old British expat single mum living life in Australia.'
