The Best of Friends by Joanna Trollope
4.0
Trollope's writing is really captivating. I really enjoyed it.
I must say, though, if you like plot-ridden stories, this is not a book for you. This is a very character-ridden story. I genuinely loved the drama and the dynamics these two families had. Exploring each and every character and their minds, emotions and ideals have been so much fun.
Fergus and Dan are easily my most favourite characters and then of course, there's Gus.
I recommend reading this book, if you're not really looking for an exciting ride, but a pleasant journey through an old town. Joanna Trollope has a way with writing the very sentence you have been thinking for yourself for ages, but couldn't put it into words before. Often enough, I stopped reading and took notes of some words or passages that I liked the way they sound.
