My Best Friend's Girl - Dorothy Koomson Reviews

I read this on a long flight and if I tell you I sat on a plane of strangers with tears running down my face you can get an idea of how it affected me. If I also tell you that after reading this I then went back and read Koomson's previous books I think thats a pretty strong positive review! The book tells the story of how ...  Read the complete review

I had heard a lot of good things about this book before I bought it, partially because of the author Dorothy Koomson who seems to be a bestseller, selling many books on various issues, sort of similar to Jodi Picoult but less controversial! I had read two of her books previously, Goodnight Beautiful and The Chocolate Run and they were ...  Read the complete review

A couple of weeks ago I read a fantastic review by jenniimariie of this book, and made a mental note to add it to my Amazon list of things to buy in the future . So, I was pretty delighted when I saw it at my daughters school fair a couiple of days ago at the bargain price of 20 pence, and snapped it up. I couldn't wait to get ...  Read the complete review

Great Book to read. Has you in tears one minute and laughing your socks off the next minute. Have been passing this book around my office its so good. Makes you think how much you would do for your friends.

If you've read my review of Marley And Me you'll know my book list is very male dominated. I don't tend to like chick-lit at all. Because of this the prospect of reading a book with such a title, such a cover, such a synopsis ugggh why did I agree to read it? The synopsis even gives away the plot. Former best friends, one ...  Read the complete review

Dorothy writes in a very easy to read style, a perfect poolside companion. Though it makes for light reading, the story is one of pure emotion. We follow our heroine, Kamryn on a life changing journey, with flashes back to the past to help explain the present. The flashbacks are something Dorothy does often (read Goodnight Beautiful) and ...  Read the complete review

My Best Friend's Girl was the very first book of Dorothy Koomson that I read, it brought tears to my eyes and made me laugh. The book was very well written, I wanted to finish to see how it ended but once I finished I wish I was still reading it! It really made me want to read it over and over. The story is about two friends that fell ...  Read the complete review

Needing some holiday books I asked my daughter to bring some for me from her huge collection of books. One was by an author called Dorothy Koomson who I had never heard of, but a sticker on the front of the book informed me that this was a "Richard and Judy's Summer Read"- was that going to make it worth reading I wondered, or ...  Read the complete review

I bought this book because I'd read a copy of "Marshmallows For Breakfast" by the same author, which I found a light pleasant read. I was dubious about this one because I've learned to be dubious of any book recommended by Richard and Judy but thought I'd give it a go. PLOT Kamryn's fiance Nate slept with ...  Read the complete review

I actually won this book at work and although the title looked familiar I had no idea if it was any good or what it would be about. I settled down to read and enjoyed it from the very first page. ~ The Main Plot ~ The main character in the book is Kamryn Matika. As the story begins she is head of a department in a ...  Read the complete review

I received My Best friend's Girl as part of a swap I did with a friend. Having already read Marshmallows for Breakfast, I had high hopes for this book, also by Dorothy Koomson. We are greeted in the beginning of the book by a lady named Lucinda (better known as Adele). She has a four year old daughter, Tegan. Adele is a ...  Read the complete review

What I gathered from the synopsis and the readers' reviews looked promising: Two best friends, Kamryn and Del (Adele) fall out with each other after Del sleeps with Kamryn's fiancé and has his ...  Read the complete review
