Love
and Other Near Death Experiences Review
Quotes
"LOVE AND OTHER NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCES really is laugh
out loud funny... Millington has come up with an ingenious and... wholly original
premise - the kind of premise that the aforementioned 99 per cent of comic
novelists would walk barefoot across hot coals to have dreamt up."
The Scotsman
"[a] side-splittingly good read... a hilarious musing
on love, mortality and religion."
Sunday Express
"If there is a male Bridget Jones, bringing intimate
dispatches from the other side of the sex divide, it is Mil Millington (Is
it? No, really: I've never read a single Bridget Jones thing, so I've no idea
- Mil)... He is horribly accurate and highly amusing about the nuts and
bolts of modern relationships... Hilarious."
Times
"It's as memorable as it is heartwarming and as deep
as it is fun"
Booklist
"Weird, in a good way... ITS INTENSE BRITISHNESS MAY
CONFOUND SOME READERS (Yes, my emphasis there. I love that so much
- Mil). But the audacious originality of Millington's witty plot and the
energy of his crisp, comic dialogue are wholly engaging"
Publishers Weekly
"A welcome third
novel from the Guardian columnist... Sharp, clever and thoughtful,
with an unerringly accurate eye for the male-female dynamic"
Easy Living
"Mil Millington... is sharp and witty and bright as a
button."
Daily Telegraph
"Hate! It!"
(I'm paraphrasing - Mil.)
The Guardian
"Witty and thoughtful."
Mail on Sunday
"Sliding Doors meets
Serendipity." (No it isn't.
Christ - Mil)
Cosmopolitan
"Funny, sexy and intelligent, you’ll laugh out loud -
then think about the choices you make in life. A must-read."
Scarlet
"Buy It... Lad-lit has never been so bright"
('Lad-lit' now. Double Christ - Mil)
The Mirror
"Other people then enter Robert's life and the storyline
takes you to highs where you laugh out loud and lows where you begin to understand
where he is coming from. At times it has almost sardonic humour thouched with
pathos."
