Other Women
CATHY KELLY (ORION, £16.99)
Gripping from the first page, Other Women captures the stories of three modern women who are all trying to juggle the balls of life – family, friends, work and romance. Independent Sid befriends unlucky-in-love Finn and is set on proving men and women can just be friends. Marin has it all – a lovely husband, kids and house – but can’t help comparing herself to others. And Bea believes her days of being in love are gone. You can’t help but respect, admire and relate to them as their messy lives unfold and intertwine in a compelling way. A real feel-good read, you’ll pick up many pearls of female wisdom along the way. ★★★★
