A brilliant premise to set up plenty of comedy moments in this hilarious new book from Claudia Carroll. Cassie has psychic visions, apart from where her own life is concerned, so while managing to sort out everyone else’s love life hers is faltering. Funny, witty and completely charming.
Claudia Carroll is already a major bestselling author in her native Ireland, and now shes ready to take America by storm with her poignantly hilarious new novel, I Never Fancied Him Anyway. Like her fellow countrywoman, New York Times bestselling novelist Marian Keyes, Carroll mixes outrageous humor with real emotion in this story of a hapless and loveless psychic who can see everyones future but her own. I Never Fancied Him Anyway is already in the works as a major motion picture from the producer of The Devil Wears Prada and P.S. I Love You. Now is the time to discover this funny, quirky, romantic winner that everyone will soon be talking about.

She is presently a full time writer, but prior to that, she worked extensively as a theatre and TV actress.

Her first novel, He Loves Me Not, He Loves Me was published in 2004 to critical acclaim and became an instant bestseller. Claudia’s third book, Remind Me Again Why I Need A Man was published and optioned by Fox TV for a series in the US. In 2007, she published her fourth novel I Never Fancied Him Anyway, which Wendy Finerman (CBS) optioned for a movie.
