Me Before You * Jojo Moyes

Image
Me Before You by Jojo Moyes  Lou Clark knows lots of things. She knows how many footsteps there are between the bus stop and home. She knows she likes working in The Buttered Bun tea shop and she knows she might not love her boyfriend Patrick.  What Lou doesn't know is she's about to lose her job or that knowing what's coming is what keeps her sane. Louisa Clark likes the simple things in life, her little job at The Buttered Bun, her little family home and living close to the castle.  Though when she arrives at work one day to find out she isn't needed anymore and that there's a bit of financial trouble at home, she decides it's time for a change whether she likes it or not.  Though going through the torture of the Job Centre, is the last thing she wants right now.

A Walk In The Park by  Jill Mansell  It's been a while, but Lara Carson's back in Bath and lives are set to change as a result.  Because Lara left her family and boyfriend Flynn eighteen years ago without a word to anyone. Why has no one heard from her since?  Things have changed since Lara last left Bath, but returning eighteen years later hasn't changed her mind on what she has to do. She wouldn't have come back if the solicitors hadn't asked for her to be there at her late fathers funeral.  Sitting at the back of the church, it seems like not everyone has forgotten that she left home when she was eighteen. Especially not her evil stepmother, if she had to be in any Disney film, she would place herself in Cinderella.  But not everything is as bad as it seems, when she bumps into her oldest and best friend from school Evie, they act like as if Lara had never left. Evie has waited all her life to be able to see Lara again, and to ...

Hey everyone! I thought I would do a quick review on the Kobo I bought a while back and the purchase, which you can see below:  Welcome Kobo Mini Well, I say it's a year on. It will be within a month haha, but I just wanted to do a quick update on how I've gone on with it and would love to know what other people think of them if they have them. So tell me what you think?  I love  the fact that you can get changeable covers for the Kobo mini, so you can have your own style with :) There are four colours that I know of, which are Teal, Pink, Purple and black. The green cover that is around my kobo is a cheap cover I bought off of ebay and I love it.  To say that the Kobo Mini is quite slim, having the green book case for it, gives it that little extra thickness. It's a lovely fit and well made, if anyone would like the link please let me know and I shall add it on :) They come in a range of different colours too.  Reading with Kobo:  ...
