Jeg har lest ferdig en kjapp, enkel, underholdende chicklit-bok. "The One Plus One" heter faktisk "Den ene pluss en" på norsk også og er skrevet av Jojo Moyes (hun med et helt halvt år). Den er omtrent akkurat det jeg forventet; forelskelser, komplikasjoner, noe rørende og noe morsomt. Ingen store overraskelser heller, men hyggelig mens det varer allikevel.
Fra baksiden:
One single mum. With two jobs and two children, Jess Thomas does her best day after day. But it's hard on your own. And sometimes you take risks you shouldn't. Because you have to...
One chaotic family. Jess's gifted, quirky daughter Tanzie is brilliant with numbers, but without a haloing hand she'll never get the chance to shine. And Nicky, Jess's teenage son, can't fight the bullies alone. Sometimes Jess feels like they're sinking...
One handsome stranger. Into their lives comes Ed Nicholls, a man with a past who is running from a deeply uncertain future. But he has time on his hands. He knows what it's like to be lonely. And he wants to help...
One unexpected love story. The One Plus One is a captivating and unconventional romance from Jojo Moyes about two lost souls meeting in the most unlikely circumstances.
Kjærlighetshistorien er vel hverken uventet eller ukonvensjonell, men fortellingen er søt nok. Jeg likte "Et helt halvt år" ganske mye bedre, men dette var underholdende og passe for late soldager. Terningkast fire fra meg, en svak firer.
