Thinking Of You - The Ultimate Escapist Read
Jill Mansell, unlike other writers in the rom-com arena, seems to get better with every book she writes. Thinking of You is her latest offering and proves that it is possible to get better with age!

Ginny Holland, a best selling author if left rattling around in her house on her own after daughter Jem goes to university. Lonely, she advertises her spare room for rent. Instead of a happy roommate, she gets moaning Laurel who is still hung up on her ex-boyfriend. If that wasn’t enough, Ginny finds herself lusting after two men who can only be bad for her. Will Ginny get the man of her dreams, or will he be the one that gets away?

Mansell has a disarming ability to create characters that you already know and that tends to make her books impossible to put down. This book is no different. It is charmingly written, hopelessly funny and will make you forget all of your own troubles as soon as you read the first page.

Janey Louise Jones:
Janey was born in Edinburgh and grew up by the seaside just outside the city. Janey published the first two Princess Poppy books herself (with her own illustrations) and the books were so popular that Random House Children?s Books soon bought the series and re-packaged the books. The series is now going from strength to strength, including picture books, novels for young readers, activity books and sumptuous gift books.
Janey read English at Edinburgh University specializing in the Victorian novel. Following this she became a teacher ? a career that she absolutely adored ? and then, with her husband, set up The Jelly Club, which has become an extremely successful chain of children?s activity centres in Scotland. She still very much enjoys visiting schools and talking to children to find out what they like doing and what makes them laugh. Janey and her husband live in Edinburgh with their three sons.

One of the earlier Princess Poppy books, this follows the usual plot pattern of this series. The book lays out the theme of the story, Poppy does something rude or selfish, before redeeming herself at the end.

This book is ballet themed, and to her credit, the author does not use one of the "usual" ballets (Swan Lake, The Nutcracker, The Sleeping Beauty) and opts for Coppelia, and the moral of the story is loosely about being happy for one's friends even if they inadvertadly usurp your own success. Nice artwork too.

One curious observation (which is in a way central to the whole point of the story): My understanding of Coppelia is that the prima ballerina plays Swanilde, not Coppelia. Janey Louise Jones seems to think differently. Who knew?
