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.

2001-08-19 Highly entertaining, descriptive account of world events

How does he manage it. John Simpson appears to be able to be at almost all the world's defining moments in the past 20 years; from the Berlin Wall, Tianmen Square, Russia "White House" standoff, Iraq/Bagdad. These events are all extremely well documented (and the difficulties endured to report them) in this account. The magic words "BBC reporter" seem to act as a password which still provides access at the highest levels around the world. Simpson appears to be more of a "chancer" (his words) than you might expect from his relaxed TV style, but is clearly a highly capable individual.

This book brings back evocative memories of the major political events of the last 20-25 years. It shows the contrast in reporting procedures, with literally the first punch from Harold Wilson (not reported by other press), to the spin doctoring of current times.

Well worth the money.
