Beautifully written & poignant - I absolutely loved this novel!
This was an evocative tale, the setting was so vividly illustrated it was impossible not to get drawn into the action and transported to New York. Addictive and dazzling, you won't want to step away from it until you have turned the very last page.
This colourful cast of characters is multi-dimensional, totally distinctive from one another. They are far from perfect but brilliantly authentic. Vivian stole my heart from the first page and will always have a piece of it; vibrant, sexy and wise she is one incredible woman.
An absolute joy to read - the writing is charming, poetic and seemingly effortless. Gilbert set out for City of Girls to “go down like a champagne cocktail — light and bright, crisp and fun.” I'm delighted to report it did exactly that. It is also thoughtful, thought-provoking, a true gem.

Jo Thomas is a firm favourite of mine & I'm happy to report that she has produced another absolute gem!
The setting is gorgeous and the writing is brilliant, you are instantly transported from your lockdown reading nook to the idyllic French countryside.
The main character Del, is a fabulous character and the perfect reminder of all the good things that come when you follow your heart, is it plain sailing? hell no, is it 100% worth doing hell yes!
This is feel-good escapism at it's finest, so treat yourself relax in a sunny spot and enjoy your break in this lavender-scented Provence.
