But as a single father battling demons of his own, Noel can’t do it alone.Fortunately, he has a competent, caring network of friends, family and neighbors: Lisa, his unlucky-in-love classmate, who moves in with him to help him care for little Frankie around the clock; his American cousin, Emily, always there with a pep talk; the newly retired Dr. Hat, with more time on his hands than he knows what to do with; Dr. Declan and Fiona and their baby son, Frankie’s first friend; and many eager babysitters, including old friends Signora and Aidan and Frankie’s doting grandparents, Josie and Charles.But not everyone is pleased with the unconventional arrangement, especially a nosy social worker, Moira, who is convinced that Frankie would be better off in a foster home. Now it’s up to Noel to persuade her that everyone in town has something special to offer when it comes to minding Frankie.Joyful, quintessential Binchy. —O, The Oprah Magazine At some point, I will accept that there were Maeve Binchy books that I loved and stop trying to find more Maeve Binchy books to love, because this is a goal I am never going to achieve.MINDING FRANKIE is one of Binchys later books, and I truly believe after the success of books like Circle of Friends and the Oprah selection Tara Road (which I was also not a fan of), she got stuck in the rut of how do I keep writing the same thing over again so people will keep buying my books?If you had told me MINDING FRANKIE was a Binchy parody, Id have believed you.For starters, there is a huge cast of characters. Huge. There had to be at least 11,000 characters and I dont even think Im exaggerating. I lost track of them all. Theres Noel, whos apparently an alcoholic. And he gets a call from this girl he shagged while drunk who claims he got her pregnant. And then she, in some bizarro fashion, is going to die when she has the baby.I cant even make this up. Binchy surely had access to Wikipedia to look up things like dramatic cancer-related death of woman during c-section and then... didnt.So Noel has to dry out and take care of this baby and he does so with this pathetic bunch of people who are all inexplicably saved by this American cousin of his who was fired from her teaching position in the States (because Binchy also doesnt understand things like tenure) and comes to Ireland to learn more about her family.And there are other factors like Noels parents having this huge fund drive to build a statue for some rando saint and his roommate, who left her job to do things for this guy who does everything but hand her a copy of Hes Just Not That Into You to convey his feelings, and his social worker has so much time on her hands she drops in on EVERYONE in this village in her Wicked Witch of the West routine to Separate Noel From His Child.Not to mention that everyone both dresses and acts like its still the 1950s (when many of Binchys earlier books took place) and this book is confusing as all hell.I watched soap operas for years, and there was less drama when Reba Shane was cloned on Guiding Light than there is in this 400-page book.The thing is, Binchy always makes you care at least about ONE character, and I kept going because a) I paid for the book and b) I needed to make sure Noel ended up okay with his kid. But the rest? I need to remind myself to NOT BUY ANY MORE OF HER BOOKS and satisfy myself with the two I loved.This review appeared previously on Goodreads.
