Lisa Jewell is a master storyteller and her latest book did not disappoint. This was an absolute journey from cover to cover!
Josie is out celebrating her 45th birthday dinner with her husband when she notices that another woman at a nearby table is also celebrating her 45th birthday. What are the chances? And when Josie later speaks to the woman (Alix, a renowned podcaster) in the loo she ascertains that they were even born in the same hospital.
What follows is a wild ride as Josie convinces Alix to tell her story on her podcast. I will say no more!
