Review

Product Description
The fourth novel from the major beselling author of WOMAN TO WOMAN, SHE'S THE ONE and NEVER TOO LATE. EMMA, HANNAH AND LEONIE Three very different women meet on holiday and become close friends. Each is at a different stage in life and has different ambitions. Hannah -- young and beautiful, wants to forget the man who betrayed her and throw herself into the excitement of the single life -- but is she deceiving herself? Emma -- two years married and desperate to have a baby. But what kind of parent would she be when she still allows herself to be bullied by her own parents? Leonie -- generously proportioned and big-hearted. Can there ever be romance for her, after fast growing-up teenaged children and a divorce? Over the next few years, as they work out their needs and desires and come to terms with their situations, their lives become inextricably entwined.

Excellent - you won't want to put it down,
By A Customer
This review is from: Someone Like You (Paperback)
The book, at first, appeared daunting by its thickness. An inevitably large tome!!Upon reading the first page however I knew I would be hooked. The book is a delightful insight into the lives of three very different women, of which the reader can see aspects of herself in them all. They initially meet on holiday in Egypt and become firm friends, despite their differences (or because of!). Emma with the difficult and unenviable situation with her mother and her desperate longing for a baby. Leonie bravely ended her 10-year marriage and is now searching for her one true love. Hannah, hurt by men and claiming her independence. Cathy Kelly has an inane knack of bringing the characters so true to life you really begin to understand and share the pain that these women go through and feel as though you are there with them. Having experienced similar, Emma's situation with her mother was portrayed so accurately and with such compassion that I actually cried. I can wholeheartedly recommend this to all you holiday makers as the "Beach Book of the Year". I actually took time out of my socialising to stop in and read this book, it was that good!! It was just a pity that the book had to end.

Fantastic,
By A Customer
This review is from: Someone Like You (Paperback)
This was the first book I have read by Cathy Kelly and I loved it. Although the book is quite large and you wonder how you will get through it all, I throughly enjoyed this book. I fell in love with all of the charcters and felt very very sad when I finished it. I particularly liked Hannah and felt incredibly sorry for her, when she meets the delectable Felix. I also felt sorry for Emma and her situation, it was so delicately told that it stirred many emotions. A real chick-lit book, read this book because it is fanatstic, if anyone is wanting a new Chick Lit author to try, try this one!

You can delve into the book and forget everything around you,
By barneykaching@hotmail.com (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Someone Like You (Paperback)
This book is fantastic! If you like a romantic and realistic storyline this is the book for you. You can picture the characters in the finest detail and relate to so many of the topics Cathy Kelly approaches. The story follows the lives of three women who meet on a cruise to Eygpt. After the holiday ends they decide to stay in touch. From falling in love with irresistable actors to caring for your mother who is suffering from Alzeimers. There is nothing these women cannot do. You'll desperately want to see this trio achieve their dreams!
