SETTLE IN WITH A CUP OF TEA AND READ THIS:

Someone Else’s Shoes
Jojo Moyes

This week, we encourage you to dive in to the new novel by #1 New York Times bestselling author Jojo Moyes; author of Me Before You and The Giver of Stars.

Her new novel Someone Else’s Shoes, asks the question: ‘Who are you when you are forced to walk in someone else’s shoes?’

Nisha Cantor is seriously wealthy and lives the high life, that is until her husband announces a divorce and cuts her off. Nisha is determined to do anything she can to hang onto her glamorous life. However, soon she is left with nothing – not even the shoes she was standing in.

That’s because Sam Kemp has accidentally taken Nisha’s gym bag (and her shoes). Sam is struggling keep her and her family together during the bleakest point of her life. But when she tries on Nisha’s six-inch high Christian Louboutin red crocodile shoes, the resulting jolt of confidence that makes her realize something must change—and that thing is herself.

This story is packed with humour and warmth and tells the tale of how it only takes the tiniest thing to change everything.

CRANK UP THE VOLUME FOR THIS:

Trustfall
