AT THE BEGINNING of this month, Irish author Louise O’Neill released her third novel.
Following her previous novels, Only Ever Yours and Asking For It, her new book Almost Love tells the story of a young woman who ends up in a very unhealthy relationship with a man who is nearly twice her age.
Louise has been doing the rounds promoting the book on various TV shows over the last couple of days, but her appearance on the Late Late Show really caught the attention of one Irish granny.
