I am not a fan of the Johnson family but a friend gave me this to read and I felt I had to at least try and read it ! I then found myself in a position where I thoroughly enjoyed it and couldn‘t put it down ! I was not expecting that …. It‘s sort of a spoof on the 2016 Brexit referendum, Russian involvement and USA presidential election - very close to the bone at times and fascinating reading .

Made all the better by the fact I‘m currently in Pelion Greece I loved this book - It‘s an adaptation of a classic Greek legend of the fate of Achilles - full of passion , war , Greek gods and drama ! . A very good read !

A very easy read and sometimes that‘s what we need ! A good but not unique story with plenty of interesting characters to keep you turning the pages - I enjoyed it ! But it hasn‘t left a void in my life !

A 1869 court room drama of sorts - it‘s a compelling read , cleverly written , the real details of the case being exposed as the story progressed - I found myself racing through it - an unusual read for me but one I enjoyed hugely !

A couple of pages in I realised I‘d read it before ! And also how good it is . A dysfunctional family and a beautiful stranger who exposes them and turns them up side down ! There was an undercurrent of justice in there somewhere . A great compulsive read .

The book is well written , sold as a love story with a musical background . I often enjoy books even when I don‘t warm to the characters, but this was an exception- the main male character was incredibly annoying and tedious . I don‘t give up on books so I read it to the end but I‘m so glad I‘ve finished it !!!! But we are all different the critics at the time described as a masterpiece !!!!

I normally steer well away from books described as ‘comic‘ but the story line pulled me in - it‘s a great book - more life than deliberately comic . The main character Kate , is inspiring- I loved her - it‘s a good read

Reading it now …. Finished it this afternoon - I loved it ! Just a great read about the complexities of life and love .
