Marina Lewycka "We are all made of glue"


Another amazing book by Marina Lewycka.

"We are all made of glue" is brilliant social comedy about middle age women, who has problems with her family. Georgia Sinclair is looking for her own space in her life. One day she met old woman Mr Shapiro who turned her world up side down. Georgia is very interested in this lady story, piece by piece she making her own image of things which had happened long time ago, somewhere far away at Israel, Palestine, Germany and Denmark.

This is excellent book!

"Two caravans" by Marina Lewycka

Amazing book. This is my first of three books by Marina. Her style is very unusual, it is real modern witty literature.

This story is about few immigrants, who met in Kent at strawberry field. From page to page you follow their amazing adventures, learn more about new world, compare it to homeland and look for love.

Irina and Andriy, the main characters of this book, have found their love and way to happiness even they are from different Ukrainian camps and different social groups.

This is very nice book, I am looking for new books by such an amazing author as Marina.

Sophie Kinsella "Can you keep a secret?"

Few years ago I read famous book about shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella. That time I found it quite simple but idea was interesting. When I started to read "Can you keep a secret?" I found myself that author changed names, situation a little bit but main line of this book is exactly the same.
Emma, feel herself lost, her family doesn't understand her, her carrier doesn't move to direction she wants it to move, relations with her boyfriend is not exactly what she wants. One day everything is changing, with stranger coming into her life. She meets Jack on plane, it seemed to her that plane is crashing and she opens all little secrets to him. Emma falling in love with a new man, who is boss of the company where she is working.
Intrigue of the book is that Jack opens Emma's secrets to public by mistake on TV.
It was easy-book for reading during my lunch time. I can't really recommend it to anyone, it is so many books out there, it is possible to find something better!

Jill Mansell "Mixed doubles"

On the way to Ukraine it wasn't anything for me to read and I found something easy in the book shop.

I don't like "love" novels, it is not my literature type. From this book I expected a little bit more of "Sex and the city" but it became more romantic novel instead.

Story tells us about three ladies who made their New Year resolutions and what happed next. One year long story shows to each girl how to find own way of happiness. Sometimes you need to loose something to understand that you really want it, sometime you need to loose something to understand that you really don't need it and sometimes you just need to believe that love is exists and to follow it with an open heart.
