Jill Mansell always manages to make me feel like I’m reading a book version of Love Actually where we’re following three different storylines and somehow they all intertwine at the end, wrapped up with a neat little ribbon and a satisfied smile on my face.įirst of all, there’s Hallie, who suffers from cystic fibrosis and is on the waiting list for a new pair of lungs. This is a story that will make you think, reassess and ultimately realize that life is for living!ĪRC generously provided via Netgalley, and it was my pleasure to provide the above honest review. I shed a few tears, had a few laughs and generally felt involved in every aspect of this book, and the challenges, situations and dilemmas the three women faced. But from loss, comes life and new beginnings, friends and families. But whose lungs will they be? you cannot help but become emotionally involved. And although you know it is coming, and as the synopsis says - Hallie goes on a journey. You can’t help but come to care for them, their friends and families. Three women Tasha, Hallie and Flo, living three completely different lives, in three separate parts of the UK, their lives gradually entwine as the book progresses, sometimes in small undetected ways, sometimes a little more obviously. Three Amazing Things About You certainly fulfills those parameters, and then some. Jill Mansell always manages to turn what you expect to initially be a heart breaking tragedy, into a story that as it develops offers hope, humor and new beginnings. 5 - Don't be sad that it's over, be glad that it happened.
