This is an LTER book for me. So far (1/4 way in) it's light and engaging enough but quite gentle; not grabbing me & pulling me in - but this is a casual read for me so I'm not the main audience for it. Gives a believable view of London, not the usual tourist-hotspots-from-a-guidebook feel.
I like the cover; my kind of colours.
humouress Nora is an American returning to London (dumping her nice, comfortable boyfriend) for work 10 yrs after a summer as a student there. She bumps into her ex, rockstar Hugh (who's engaged), and his best mate Julian. Hugh & Nora were the loves of each other's lives till she left him to return to the US.
