The Lilac Bus by Maeve Binchy
4.0

The lilac bus reminded me, of which I had forgotten, how wonderful and light Maeve Binchy's stories are. I loved that again, like in her other books, the characters were all connected somehow, and even in each of the short stories about the characters they all speak of the same events happening through different eyes.

I couldn't pick a favourite character as I related so much to their stories and their look on life, the two stories I liked the best were Judy and Kev's just because they were funny to read and so unpredictable.

I'm giving the book 4 stars instead of 5 because I really didn't like Nancy Morris but I think she was written to be hated by the reader.

The story flows very well from each characters small narration, I wish it hadn't ended and I could of stayed in Rathdoon a little bit longer
