What I've Read - January (It's Not Me It's You - Mhairi McFarlane)




The are very few "chick lit" authors were I eagerly await their next book, and Mhairi (pronounced Vah-Ree) McFarlane is firmly in that category ( the only other author I can think of is Tracy Bloom). Not only do her books have romance at the centre, they are genuinely funny and the characters are genuinely relatable. Her latest release It's Not Me It's You is no exception, her first release in hardback, I got through the entire thing in less than 48 hours.

So after that introduction I better tell you what the book is actually about:

" Delia isn't sure when her life went wrong.
When she proposed and discovered her boyfriend was sleeping with someone else - she thought it was her fault.
When she realised life would never be the same again -she thought it was her fault.
But when he wanted her back like nothing had changed - Delia started to wonder if perhaps she wasn't to blame...
As life sends Delia hurtling in a new direction, will she be brave enough to say yes: it not me, it's you?"

I just have to say a quick shout for Mhairi for having a character (Steph) from the Wirral, is it just me who likes it when the place you live is mentioned in a book your reading? And for also noting how people who are from the Wirral can get very annoyed when people say you're from Liverpool! 

Let me know if you have read this book and what you thought about it, and don't forget to leave your book recommendations in the comments?
