Somewhere Only We Know - Review

Somewhere Only We Know - Review

There's a saying that true friends leave a mark on your heart and stay with you forever. I believe the same can be said of great characters and a good book. With this latest offering, Lawless' presents a unique twist to the conventional romance novel, and enables her protagonists, Alex and Nadia, to leave an indelible mark.

From the moment Nadia's and Alex's lives collide, I was captured by them and couldn't put the book down. By the end, I felt I was a part of this group of friends and their London. (I want to go with Nadia and Alex to a night at Bodeans!)

Although the central story is about boy meets girl, there's so much more to Somewhere Only We Know. Once again, Lawless has written a believable love story that isn't just about the two central characters falling for each other; it is also about their friends and the challenges they have - because when you fall in love, everyone else's drama is still going down. It is this, that, for me, makes her latest book so relatable and enjoyable.

I loved being part of the emotion and adventure - discovering London through the eyes of Alex and Nadia, and ticking off points on Nadia's Bucket List; all the while experiencing the same moments of trepidation and anxiousness for Nadia's impending deportation appeal. Lawless did an expert job of letting her characters get on with life and love, leaving you to forget the problems of the future until something bought it crashing back into the fore.

With summer fast approaching, this is a great holiday read to pop on your Kindle or e-reader and enjoy by the poolside. Go get it today!
