review 1: I adored this book. It certainly takes you on an emotional roller coaster with Gina. My heart went out to her with all the hills she had to climb. It was a beautiful romantic story, filled with sadness and happiness, warmth and inspiration. I loved the setting of the book and fou...

review 1: If you know me well, you would know why I was attracted to this book. This book isn't really about love. Well, actually it is, but it's more about life. And the things you go through. You can really learn alot of things from reading this book, but if you're a booknerd like me, yo...

review 1: A nice "light read." Books about dogs are my guilty pleasure for reading in between the "heavier" books that I pick up. The story's a good one, set in England, about a young woman grieving the loss of her young husband. Nearly catatonic with grief, she is pushed to get out into t...

review 1: Novels that involve dogs always attract me. But this novel is a disappointment. I don't get any touching feeling about the relationship of the dog and its owner. The novel itself is dragging too long without no meaning and no suspense at all. The repetition is boring; the dog wal...

review 1: This book was a book of surprises for me. The way it started out with the divorce, weaving that with the story of the young all encompassing love, flipping back and forth between the painful "now" of recent divorce with Gina trying to get her new single life together and succeed...

review 1: Loved this book so much. Still don't know the secret to happy ever after! This book was so interesting. Michelle left her husband and moved to another town and opened first one store, then another. She was running from a past bad expereince as well as a verbally abusive hus...

review 1: Another really great book by Lucy Dillon. It's such a joy to read her stories. She portrays her characters and their different relationships with incredible accuracy. I am a step-mother, and for several years I wanted and could not have a child of my own. The book describes with ...

review 1: Dillon creates such real characters that I feel as though I know them. She includes dogs in her stories and even the dogs have special character traits that make me smile. Two sisters are estranged because of something each of them said over drinks one night. It takes a long t...

review 1: Liebe kommt auf sanften Pfoten von Lucy Dillon erzählt über den Schmerz des Verlustes und dessen Heilung durch die Mitmenschen, aber auch den Vierbeinern, die Teil unseres Lebens sind oder wie im Fall von Juliet, werden können. Auch wenn das Buch einen großen "Trauer-Anteil" behe...

review 1: Chick Lit? Probably... I picked up this book because I wanted to read a good "dog story."There wasn't very much "dog story" in Walking Back to Happiness but it was OK... The characters were all likeable and fun (especially the neighbours) but the point of view being solely femal...

review 1: Carino, simpatico, emozionate e dolcissimo.Come al solito Lucy Dillon riesce ha creare storie di confusine e dolore prima e decisione e rinascita poi.Mi sono entrati nel cuore soprattutto i protagonisti a quattro zampe, incapaci di parlare, ma capaci con il loro amore e la loro v...

review 1: To be honest, initially I was taken aback by the sheer size of this novel. After all it's chick-lit! What was this - chick-lit with gravitas? First impressions, however, are not always the correct ones, as all good Janeites know. The plot is hardly original; a disparate group of ...

review 1: En riktig feel good-bok som passade ypperligt att läsa på stranden på semestern. Jag älskar chic-lit som genre för jag är en sucker för lyckliga slut - och böcker likt den här slutar med största sannolikhet alltid lyckligt. Karaktärerna var ganska slätstrukna och oproblematiserad...

review 1: I really enjoyed this book despite starting it before and finding it hard to get into. Definitely think Lucy Dillon has good taste in animals and her writing is very good and easy to read and sink into. I definitely like the story on the dogs, and the main characters Aunt and the...

review 1: Una storia che nasce dall'intreccio di tante storie su una pista da ballo, dove generazioni diverse si incontrano e trovano un terreno comune nella danza.Un'insegnante d'eccezione che sa leggere nei cuori delle persone è l'elemento catalizzatore della storia insieme alla danza ch...
