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.

2005-02-23 A delightful and nostalgic read

I wasn't entirely sure what to expect when I was given this book. Of course, I grew up listening to Bill's wonderful rugby commentary and the book brought childhood memories flooding back. But the story is something altogether more than a trip down memory lane with reflections on rugby greats. Bill's life has contained it's fair share of drama and tragedy. Weaved together with his love of the game and his professional life I found it an absolute pleasure to read. There is something wonderfully noble about how Bill tells his story and it's difficult not to be left with the feeling that we have lost something unique from our Saturday afternoons. If, as I am, you are a former rugby player you will also find his views on the modern game thought provoking.
I found the book a breath of fresh air. It puts a lot of things in perspective and reminds you of how rich a life can be.
