Any additional comments?

I thought I may not like this one, but 'Me Before You' and 'The One Plus One' blew me away. Jojo's writing is so imaginative, beautiful and skilled, that I had to give it a try. Its very different to the other two. Its a real old fashioned love story Jojo style. I loved it and will probably read it/listen again. Not something I do often.

Jojo does it again!

I really enjoyed this. I was intrigued by the love letter found by a 2003 journalist when looking through the archives of her newspaper for ideas for a feature and also her relationship with a married man and how she was dealing with it. The story then goes back to 1960 and Jennifer Stirling, waking with amnesia and trying to piece her life together after finding a love letter tucked into a paperback book in her home. I thought the story gave a very good insight into how relationships have changed. The taboo surrounding divorce in 1960 and how a wife was expected to just get on with things, no matter if she was happy or not. The love story of Jennifer and Anthony was heartbreaking at times and I found it frustrating at times and had to remind myself to view it with 1960 society wife eyes.

Really enjoyable, couldn't put it down.
