Could not put it down
I started Notes on a Happier Life on a Sunday afternoon and finished it the same night. Joanna Blake writes with such warmth that the characters felt like old friends by the final chapter.

The prose is lyrical without ever feeling heavy. A perfect self-help read and one I have already passed on to my sister.

Gently paced in the middle, but the ending more than made up for it. The sense of place is wonderful and I could picture every scene.
