I inhaled this book, it's the first thing I've read in ages where I was desperate to keep reading. Rachel and James (and Carey) were so vividly drawn, flawed and wonderful. I loved the reference to Rachel working in a thinly veiled Foyles, I worked there around the same time and the same age so it made me very nostalgic.
