Reviews

This blast of a book throws two wildly different women together for a giddily joyful caper that reminds anyone who may have forgotten — don’t mess with a woman over 40
*Sunday Times, Books of the Year*

The antidote to February that we all need. A blast of a book . . . There's something rather giddily joyful about this tale of women pulling together, and Moyes writes about their high jinks, tribulations and amorous entanglements with warmth and a wonderfully wicked sense of humour
*THE TIMES 'BOOK OF THE MONTH'*

Do shoes make the woman... or does the woman make the shoes? Jojo Moyes' new novel is a delightful reverse-Cinderella story of two women who seem polar opposites - until circumstance forces them to experience each other's lives. Nobody writes women the way Jojo Moyes does - recognizably real and complex and funny and flawed - which is what makes her novels an auto-buy for me
*Jodi Picoult, #1 NYT bestselling author*

Someone Elses Shoes is SO MUCH FUN. Beautiful about female friendship and brilliant on being a woman of a certain age who won't take any more sh*te!
*MARIAN KEYES*

A book we all need in our lives right now. A fabulous and funny romp
*Woman & Home Book Club*

Very few authors have the power to make you laugh on one page and cry on the next. Moyes is one of them
*New York Times*

A paean to women's solidarity wrapped up in a very funny revenge-fuelled caper
*The Times*

Riotously fun and an ode to strong female friendships
*Prima*

[A] captivating new blockbuster. Superb. Once you step into the lives of Sam and Nisha, you'll be racing through the pages, breathless to find out what happens next. It's a sassy strut of a novel, full of twists and high-adrenaline moments, but ultimately it's got heart too. The characters are relatable, memorable and engaging, and you'll be rooting for your favourites to end up walking tall
*Daily Express*

A warm, witty and uplifting novel and it's a joy to spend time with Jojo Moyes' flawed, likeable characters. Another winner from a fabulous author
*Sunday Express*

*Sun*

Someone Else's Shoes is a fantastic novel about the power of female friendships that hugely resonates with me; I'm such a big fan of Jojo's work and of her brilliant, joyful writing. It was an honour to be asked to narrate the story and I hope listeners enjoy the audiobook as much as I enjoyed recording it

Freaky Friday is all grown up in this heartfelt and heartwarming tale of two women in very different circumstances.... From the storyteller behind Me Before You comes a story of reinvention that just might inspire you to make a change yourself-just buy your own shoes
*Good Housekeeping*

Empathy and an extravagant plot collide in Moyes's big hug of a novel. Its real heart is the burgeoning friendship between two brilliantly realised but very different fortysomething women

Charming ... Moyes is never short on her trademark clever observations ...[her] fans will have a ball
*Publishers Weekly*

Somehow heartbreaking and uplifting at the same time

Explores themes of female friendship, motherhood, ageing, love and disillusionment. Moyes brings her main characters - a unlikely group of women thrown together - to life, each as flawed as they are brilliant, and stronger together
