Book Description

Publication Date: 6 Mar 2006
Emma adores living in Brighton, but she loves Matt more. When he suggests they buy the perfect farmhouse in the south of France, she reluctantly agrees, even though he continues commuting to London while she looks after their daughter and the builders. But France is not the idyll he promised, and when she discovers the true reason he spends half his time in London the foundations on which she’s built her life start to crumble...

5.0 out of 5 stars Plan B - another great read from Emily Barr 31 Mar 2006
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Emily Barr's books are always addictive reading and Plan B was no different I ended up reading the whole book in only a few days. Plan B is intelligent chick-lit with clever plotting and great descriptions.
Emma the main character, is living in Brighton until her partner persuades her to move to France, but once they move Emma finds out a horrible truth that turns her world upside down and you are taken along with her.
The story is both funny and sad all at the same time and Barr tells the story with her usual eye for detail which is what i love about the way she writes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Read it Now! 25 Mar 2006
By Ms Molly Winkles
Format:Paperback
Fantastic - I raced through it to find out how Emma coped. The characters and twists are great. Extremely well-written, I was there in France with her. Loved Cuban Heels, Backpack and Baggage (not so keen on Atlantic Shift). I just hope Emily Barr has another one just as good up her sleeve for publishing soon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb - really worth a read 11 Aug 2005
By "deanb2002"
Format:Hardcover
Having read all of Emily Barr's novels I found this one even better than expected. It deals sensitively with two major issues - finding oneself alone after being left by a two timing partner, and moving to a foreign country - like so many of us dream of doing!

The book kept my interest to the end, and I could really identify with the main character, Emma.

All in all, really worth reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good place to escape to.
This is the first of her books I read and though they all work with the theme of girl on her own there is always a surprising twist.

This is the first Emily Barr book I've read but I'll definately go looking for the others now - well written with characters you can really sympathise with.

I'm sorry, I really didn't enjoy this book at all and found the characters thin and one-dimensional and the plot full of holes. Read more
