On a rainy Sunday, the day after Valentine’s Day, the boyfriend and I decided to go out for breakfast (we had done nothing for Valentine’s day mind you). After breakfast we went for a stroll down the high street and into a charity shop. I always head straight to the mass of old paperbacks and my eyes caught on this chunky fella. £1.50 and I bought it.
And I don’t regret it!
Easy to read and enjoyable. I was getting a bit frustrated in the later parts because I thought it was going on a bit unnecessarily but the reasons became clear and it tied everything together at the end nicely. A bit of a tome at 700+ pages but I read it in just over a week without it feeling like a slog to get through.
