4.0 out of 5 stars Great holiday read and present!, 28 July 2008
By RC (Leicester (UK)) - See all my reviews
  
I bought this for my mum when she was going on holiday and she loved it so much that I had a read as well. There is a good mix of stories - some make you laugh and other's tug on the heartstrings. I loved the retro feel to the jacket and have it facing out on my book shelf!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great beach read...didn't put it down! , 10 July 2008
By Pat B (London) - See all my reviews
What a lovely collection...I wasn't sure if a short stories book would be ideal for my holiday as I usually like to have loads of typical chick lit books to take away with me. But this was a short haul break away and I needed something light for my bag - Great Escapes was perfect!
Snappy and humorous and I even shed a tear whilst reading one of them - very moving.
Well recommended.
