Finished it this evening, and wow... just proves that the other Lucy Dillon book I've read (Lost Dogs and Lonely Hearts) wasn't a one off.
Fantastic characters, a few familiar faces, and some canine characters you wish you could adopt. Not your usual chick lit, there are everyday triumphs and tragedies, big and small, that make you reach for the tissues. My kind of book. I will cry at most things in books, but it makes the blubbing all the more worthwhile when it's such a great read.
I have Lucy Dillon's first book, The Ballroom Class, on my to be read pile, and just need to get hold of Walking Back to Happiness to complete the set, but I want to savour these two as she has only written four books so far. I'm not complaining, in fact I hope there will be many more!
My eye was caught when you started writing about Lucy Dillon. I read The Ballroom Class just during a couple of days. I like the character Lauren in the book I too dragged my husband-to-be to dance lessons for our wedding.
