Thirty-nothing - Lisa Jewell Reviews

I have never read Lisa Jewell's work before, and like to experiment and read different authors and was looking forward to reading it based on a synopsis online. It sounded good. The basic premise is that 'just reached 30' stigma, and although I reached that age many years ago, I can still remember the indecision, and that awful feeling of not ...

The front and back cover design of Thirty-Nothing is in the now established 'Lisa Jewell' theme and style - and pretty snappy it is too. Thirty-Nothing is not a very original idea - two should-be lovers who have been best friends for many years get together with other people whilst realising that they're destined to be ...

As somebody who tends to read a book once or twice a year, I never know really what to look for when I’m gazing at the endless row upon row of books in my local shop, but this one caught my eye. I love to read about relationships, and this seemed to offer me exactly what I was looking for. Basically it is a story about first loves, ...

As a huge fan of her previous book, I positively leapt upon this wishing for another good lazy hazy summer’s afternoon read. Was I disappointed? Yes and No. Thirty Nothing tells the story of two best friends Nadine Kite and Digby Ryan, two people with unfortunate names and even worse love lives. The day after the big ...

I am a twenty year old girl so i have no idea what goes through peoples heads when they turn thirty, but i guess it would be something like this book. After reading Ralphs Party I snatched this book off the shelves and immediately started reading it in the hope that it would be as good if not better. I was not disappointed. ...

Imagine your Dig, your 30 , your single and you just woke up the morning after your 30th birthday party with an 18 year old girl. Most guys would have a sixty mile smile on their face, but not you, because you just realised the one thing thats missing in your life.....love. That is until your long lost love Delilah shows up in the park one ...

After reading Ralphs Party I was pleased to see another book by Lisa Jewell. After reading the back of 'Thirty Nothing' I wasnt as enthusiastic as I thought I would be, but I like the way Jewell writes, so I bought it. In comparison to her earlier book, I dont think that this one was as good. The story is about two best friends, ...

Ralph's Party was the best-selling debut novel last year - and Lisa Jewell's many fans have been eagerly awaiting the next book. The theme is familiar enough - think When Harry Met Sally, but starting in 1980's London. Dig and Deen are mates, but Deen would like more. Just at the point when she decides to tell Dig how she ...

Following her very strong debut (Ralph's Party), Lisa Jewell's second novel is something of a disappointment. The basic problem is in it's utter predictability. Dig and Nadine, two old pals, are suddenly plunged into confusion as Dig hooks up with his old flame Delilah, and both begin to suspect that there feelings for each other might ...
