Synopsis:-
Cath and Si are best friends. Total opposites, always together, and both unlucky in love.Cath is scatty,messy and emotionally closed. Si is impossibly tidy, bitchy and desperate for a man of his own. When Portia steps back into their lives,her reappearance sets of a chain of events that tests them to the limit. Does Portia have a hidden agenda, or is she just looking for happy endings all round ? Whatever the answers, none of them could ever predict the outcome �.
Review:-
I went back to reading this one as it’s one of my favourites and I felt like I was in a slump, as always I loved it, It has given me the feeling of wanting to curl up with a good book again.
We begin with a group of university friends Si,Cath, Josh, Portia and Eddie and we get a chunk of how it was between them back where it all began until Portia does something that ruins the group dynamic and that’s it, the end of the groups friendship. Fast forward a few years and we are in the group with Cath,Si, Josh and his wife Lucy. Cath is a single career girl, Si the gay best friend and Josh and Lucy, wife,husband and parents.
Cath and Lucy decide to open up a bookshop/cafe named Bookends. After opening, the groups friendship is tested to the max when Portia arrives back into their lives. Can their lives remain the same with Portia back in the fold ? Has things changed so much that they can’t go back ?
Jane Green is one of my favourite authors, I enjoy curling up with one of her books and I cannot wait to see if there will be anything new from her soon.
