Review

'An utterly absorbing and blissfully romantic read'

(Daily Telegraph )

'Beautifully written . . . an exquisite tale of love lost, love found and the power of letter writing.' *****

(Sunday Express )

'A gorgeously romantic and partner-ignoringly compulsive read . . . Immaculately paced, genuinely touching and stuffed with Mad Men-esque period details, it's a page-turner that loves words themselves.'

(Independent on Sunday )

'The best book of the summer . . . a totally un-put-downable read but one that should come with a severe warning: this will make you cry buckets on the beach. Beautiful.'

(Stylist )

'Wonderfully moving and unashamedly romantic . . . packed with emotion, it will have you captivated from the very first page'

(Woman )

'Two stories brilliantly intertwine in this unputdownable, top-class romantic read. You'll need to have Kleenex at the ready.'

(Woman & Home )

'A dramatic, romantic tale of lost love letters, broken hearts and hopeful outcomes . . . The story is incredibly moving, as Moyes explores the way that love and loss and a few words can make a new life or break a heart'

(Marie Claire )

'A fabulously romantic tale that should inspire you to scribble some love notes of your own'

(Glamour )

'Vivid, moving and cleverly constructed. Passion, love and loss are the big themes - prepare to weep'

(Sainsbury's Magazine )

'This poignant novel will make your heart flutter' *****

(Heat )

'If you are looking for a thoroughly romantic read that will have you grabbing for the tissues with tears of joy and sadness then this is a must read. It's full of warm and wonderful characters and will keep you reading in to the wee small hours not wanting it to end. Pure romance.'

'I lost myself completely in THE LAST LETTER FROM YOUR LOVER, I totally adored it. Utterly compulsive and swooningly romantic, it's just perfect.'

(Jenny Colgan )

'This paper does not always look kindly on pink-jacketed pieces of chick lit. But Moyes is that delicious thing: a chick lit authoress more interested in how things are than in Hallmark card-style cliche . . . you'll be glued to it right through . . . Delicious? Certainly. Tear-jerking? You'll see.'

(Zoe Strimpel, City A.M. )

'[Provides] a peek at love through poignant letters ending relationships.'

(News of the World )

'I am evangelical about this book . . . properly old-fashioned romantic but it's an amazing amazing piece of plotting . . . stunningly romantic . . . I think it should win [the Romantic Novel of the Year Award].'

(BBC Radio 2 Claudia Winkleman )

A beautiful book... 6 Aug 2010
By C. Rucroft VINE™ VOICE
Format:Hardcover
This book took my breath away. Not only is the cover absolutely beautiful, so is the story. Moyes cleverly mixes modern-day Ellie with 1960's Jennifer. Their stories intertwine in a way you just cannot imagine.

We follow Jennifer on an emotional journey, of love and fate. At times I laughed, at times I cried and at times I gasped aloud. I constantly had a lump in my throat and a knot in my stomach, wondering where we were going to be going next. I felt honoured, as the reader, to be a allowed to read what seemed to be a very private story.

The book is interspersed with emails, letters and texts from real people. These add a lovely element to the book.

This is now one of my favourite books. I couldn't put it down and I read it in 2 days. A brilliantly written book which I defy anyone not to like.

A Great Idea 30 April 2011
By Mrs. K. A. Wheatley TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
I am not a huge fan of the romance genre, but I had heard good things about this book and decided to give it a go. I was impressed. It was well written, page turning and full of good, believable characters. I thoroughly enjoyed the story about Jennifer and Boot, both of whom I warmed to, and the conceit of the letters as the framework for the book worked really well. The only weak point for me was the modern day story of Ellie, which although necessary as a vehicle for telling the story of the past, seemed somehow weaker and more unsatisfactory. I loved the letters from real people that divided the different sections of the book too. I will definitely be reading more by Jo Jo Moyes.

By Lincs Reader TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Hardcover
I've been a Jojo Moyes fan now for quite a few years, she is very talented and quite diverse in her writing. Every book has been different but engaging, satisfying reads and this, her lates is no except
Starting with the modern-day Ellie - a struggling newspaper journalist who is in the middle of an affair with a married man and travelling back to 1960 to learn about Jennifer - both heroines, both stories are equally engaging, although Jennifer's story does make up the majority of the story.
When Ellie finds a letter in the newspaper's archive, it strikes a chord with her. The letter is from an unknown man who is begging his married lover to leave her husband. Ellie's own relationship is shaky to say the least and the letter intrigues her, she decides to investigate further - if nothing else, it could make a good story and keep Melissa, the domineering Features Editor off her back.
The story then goes back to 1960 where Jennifer is recovering from a mysterious car accident, she has memory loss and she too discovers a letter. This letter turns her world upside down, it appears that she has been having an affair - but who with, and where is he now?
The reader is then thrust into the story of Jennifer and her lover, Boot - a real old-fashioned love story that really tugs at the heart strings. The descriptions of Jennifer's glamorous life in the 1960s are wonderful and reminded me of the style and glamour of the likes of Jackie O, the clothes, the dinner parties, the music - the overbearing husband.
To say much more would be to say too much - but the story did evoke a lot of emotions, with a lump firmly stuck in my throat by the end.
Once again, Jojo Moyes had delivered the goods - a wonderful read.
