Mavis and Lumpy are getting married, but they can't agree on anything, will they learn to compromise, or will they break up over the size of their wedding cake?

Mavis and Lumpy argue over everything from the venue to the size of the paper plates, and when Lumpy befriends the local Indian restaurant, their relationship spirals out of control.

Mavis's sister arrives to "sort things out". She wins over Lumpy with hilarious budget ideas that would have Scrooge tap dancing. Mavis wants to tap dance on her sister's head and is on the verge of throwing it all away when her mother dies.

With a funeral befitting a sitcom, sibling rivalry on par with a Shakespearean tragedy, and a dying mother's impossible wish; Mavis and Lumpy's relationship crumbles like a burnt chapatti.

Will the funeral be the final straw for Mavis and Lumpy, or is there a chance for building bridges?

Four Takeaways And A Funeral is the third book in the Bellydancing and Beyond series. If you like fast-paced books that make you laugh, then buy Four Takeaways And A Funeral today and watch Mavis shimmy towards a life worth getting out of bed for.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Back in the days before TV had remote controls and Scotland was known for the Bay City Rollers Kerrie left Australia on a working holiday and fell in love with many things Scottish. In the past, she has been a regular on Community Radio, taught Belly dancing, ‘done’ a little stand-up, and appeared at the Edinburgh Festival.

Kerrie still dances often accompanied by storytelling and the odd joke and has inflicted her quirky style of humor on many- including, several rest homes, charity events and pretty much anyone who will sit still long enough to listen.

She has past been shortlisted for the Asham short story award and had two short plays performed on radio.

Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2018
I have mixed feelings about this book. There were things I really enjoyed - the characters were colorful, it was pretty funny and had a good plot. But I felt myself getting lost and that, in places, the story dragged. The story is very British...and maybe that’s a better audience for it. I’m not saying the story wasn’t enjoyable (because it was), it just wasn’t my favorite.

I received an advanced reader copy of this book and voluntarily provided this review

Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2018
This book does not live up to the description. This is the first book in this series that I read, this may be the reason that I could not get into the story or the characters. The characters were not realistic not could I get vested in anything about their story. The writing is ok and may go your liking it you have read the previous books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Aching belly laugh
Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2018
I was gifted a copy of this book by the author in exchange for a voluntary and honest review of same.

As in Book 2, the story is told of in the first person mode of Nefertiti and, this time, concerns the upcoming nuptials of Mavis and Lumpy and the divided opinions between the two as to how this should be conducted. To further complicate the matter, there is the interference by involvement of Mavis's 'I am always right' sister and the funeral arrangements following the death of their mother.

Is that the end of the story? No. Nefertiti now has the Bag Lady camped in the backyard, who has a regularly visitor who is the mother of the chap that stole her long-time partner in Book 2.

Once again, I believe that this book could be read as a stand-alone book but, personally, I think you'll get better enjoyment reading Book 1 & 2 first. Get the whole three.

Highly recommended, if what you're looking for is a pleasant good laugh.

2.0 out of 5 stars Crazy story with a curry shop
Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2018
Long story about a strange group of people in Scotland all centered around a curry shop. Mavis and Lumpy were going to get married, but she didn't want all food coming from curry shop. There was a bag lady, belly dancers, birthday dad, and Roadworks man. The story was a little confusing and it seemed to be centered around the curry shop, a wedding and a funeral. It took me awhile to finish the book, it didn't really grab my interest. I voluntarily reviewed this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting comedy
Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2018
A humourous interesting comedy. Seems to be a continuation of a continuing story and characters. Mavis and Lumpy have decided to wed but they seem to have very different ideas than the other then throw in Mavis's sister to add a little drama for a good interesting read.

Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2018
This was a very entertaining read. Told from the perspective of Nefertiti, the trials and tribulations of her best friend Mavis" wedding plans gone seriously awry. It was a bit confusing at times with the long cast of characters, but this was the first book I have read in this series and probably contributed. Well written.
