3.73 AVERAGE


Qu’est ce que ça fait du bien de lire ce genre de livre : c’est un petit bonbon tout sucré et réconfortant.
Le roman parfait qui donne la pêche.
Je vous cache pas que je suis triste d’avoir terminé ce livre j’étais bien dedans, à Brighton. On a l’impression d’être avec une bande de copine de suivre leurs peines mais aussi leurs joies et la concrétisation de leur projet ! On est en colère avec elles, on a envie de les réconforter quand ça ça va pas et on a envie de leur dire fonce ! Elles vont me manquer !
Un petite pépite qui sort ce printemps/été vous pourrez le lire au soleil avec un bonne boisson les doigts pieds en éventail vous serez bien

Great to read a book about a place I know. Very predictable but a pleasent book.

A good light that is perfect to escape into 

A group of women who are having a difficult time in quite different ways find themselves living in the same apartment block in Brighton. Most are new to area but two are not. They soon begin to find each other and help to forge a way forward. 

I would say this is perfect to read before bed. (In a good way, obviously). However, one thing to bare in mind is that the chapters are long, so maybe half a chapter in bed.

It's not a true reading challenge without at least one Lucy Diamond book!

Ever since I picked up The Year of Taking Chances several years back, I've been hooked on Lucy Diamond's novels. This one was no different. It's not the most complicated or heavy work of literature, but like all her other books it's well-written with sweet, rounded characters, plenty of humour, and some very touching themes. It was overall a really lovely novel.

Riktigt mysig feelgood som checkar av alla boxar för vad jag klassar som en bra feelgood-bok. Första Lucy Diamond boken jag läst och ser redan framemot att läsa mer av henne.
