'The Best Kind of Beautiful is the best kind of book: touching, funny, whimsical and mysterious! A special story about a delightful family.' Liane Moriarty

'All heart. All soul. All kinds of beautiful.' Trent Dalton, author of Boy Swallows Universe

'Warm, witty, provocative, a wise observer of human nature, family, life.' Quentin Bryce AD CVO

Florence Saint Claire is a loner. Albert Flowers is a social butterfly. Good friends who think they know each other.

But, somewhere between who they are, and who people think they are, lies The Best Kind of Beautiful.

Award-winning journalist and author Frances Whiting brings her renowned warmth and empathy to this witty and gentle novel about bringing out the best in each other.
