REVIEW FROM BOOKS FOR HER:
It’s classic Jojo Moyes – with a little crying, a little Bridget Jones-esque humor and now Louisa Clark has stepped into New York City. She takes with her a long-distance relationship with her After You beau Sam.
What I’ve loved about all Jojo Moyes books is the realness … a sense of someone so real, I even caught myself going to work thinking about the characters as friends, like ‘I should see how Lou is doing with the Sam thing.’ but remembered it was just a book (a good one!).
And the complexity of the relationships that Lou builds with her family, new friends in New York – all while navigating a long-distance thing, are lighthearted and believable. And without ruining the end, you’ll enjoy even the heartbreaking parts.
