The Choir - Joanna Trollope

Friday Nights - Joanna Trollope

My mum bought me this book as part of my 21st presents, I have just finished it and very much enjoyed it. The characters in this book are brought together because they live on the same street, a lonely old lady invites them to come to her house on a friday night.

The characters are all very different, one is looked after by a man she has loved for years but already has a family he doesnt want to leave so he just pays for a flat. Another has been widowed and so is scared of being in love again, her sister is a homeless dj wanabe, and another is a career driven woman like the old woman onces was. The last is struggling to ...

Friday Nights - Joanna Trollope

I have been enjoying Joanna Trolloppe novels for a long time now and each time she writes a new one I have to add it to my collection. Her latest novel is Friday Nights which is an excellent read and is probably one of her best to date. It s not a book where a lot happens. There isn t really that much action.

They vary greatly in age and circumstances but all rely on the companionship and support from each other particularly during their Friday night get-togethers. The six form a wonderfully ...

Second Honeymoon - Joanna Trollope

Second Honeymoon is Joanna Trollope s thirteenth novel, and like all of the others is a really good read. In my view, Joanne Trollope is a very good observer of people and their relationships, and this is at the centre of all her books. None are action packed adventure stories but all give good insights into other people s lives. She deals with quite complex issues that affect families like divorce and second marriages and affairs. In Second Honeymoon she examines what happens to a family when all the children grow up and leave! At the centre of the novel are Edie and Russell. For almost all of their married life together they have been bringing up their three ...
