Reviews
This blast of a book throws two wildly different women together for a giddily joyful caper that reminds anyone who may have forgotten - don't mess with a woman over 40 * Sunday Times, Books of the Year *
The antidote to February that we all need. A blast of a book . . . There's something rather giddily joyful about this tale of women pulling together, and Moyes writes about their high jinks, tribulations and amorous entanglements with warmth and a wonderfully wicked sense of humour * THE TIMES 'BOOK OF THE MONTH' *
Do shoes make the woman... or does the woman make the shoes? Jojo Moyes' new novel is a delightful reverse-Cinderella story of two women who seem polar opposites - until circumstance forces them to experience each other's lives. Nobody writes women the way Jojo Moyes does - recognizably real and complex and funny and flawed - which is what makes her novels an auto-buy for me -- Jodi Picoult, #1 NYT bestselling author
Someone Elses Shoes is SO MUCH FUN. Beautiful about female friendship and brilliant on being a woman of a certain age who won't take any more sh*te! -- MARIAN KEYES

[A] captivating new blockbuster. Superb. Once you step into the lives of Sam and Nisha, you'll be racing through the pages, breathless to find out what happens next. It's a sassy strut of a novel, full of twists and high-adrenaline moments, but ultimately it's got heart too. The characters are relatable, memorable and engaging, and you'll be rooting for your favourites to end up walking tall * Daily Express *
A warm, witty and uplifting novel and it's a joy to spend time with Jojo Moyes' flawed, likeable characters. Another winner from a fabulous author * Sunday Express *

Someone Else's Shoes is a fantastic novel about the power of female friendships that hugely resonates with me; I'm such a big fan of Jojo's work and of her brilliant, joyful writing.
