Just the ticket for my COVID isolation read in Leh – a nice chunky novel revolving around the world of book publishing. Key characters: frenemies Gemma and Lily – connected by ex/current partner Anton – and London-based publishing agent Jojo who’s in the throes of a secret affair with her boss Mark. Oh, and Gemma’s mum and dad.
Plenty of insight into the world of book publishing and promotion – advances, auctions, deals and disappointments – and, as always, the relationships we have with family and friends
Picked up from LW London and left at the Glacier View Hotel, Leh, for someone else to enjoy…
A smart, sassy female Private Detective. Family. Love. Boy Band Reunions. The crash of the Celtic Tiger. Recession. Depression….. The Mystery of Mercy Close is a not-so-easy easy read. But a good one.
My first Marian Keyes novel, and I think I’ll find time to spend more time with the Walsh Family.
My first Marian Keyes. Easy (compulsive!) reading, with a ‘life lesson’ underlying message that there’s always more than one side to a story. I’ll be reading more.
