HER BEST NOVEL YETInspiring and wildly romanticUtterly enchanting An entertaining, immersive and moving read. The Giver of Stars is
rip-roaring popular fiction . . . but it is also a novel that
celebrates education, intellectual curiosity and, above all, books and the knowledge, comfort, company and power that they can bring. Moyes shines a light on a historic footnote to pay tribute to women's work, endurance and female solidarityFor years I've been a
huge Jojo Moyes fan. It's
such a great narrative about
personal strength and really captures how books bring communities together, especially for these women who are completely bonded by their love of literatureA
genuinely entertaining book that's
a perfect gift for people who need some escape from the everyday and just want to be absorbed in a really cracking story. Set in rural America in the 1930s, it's got a band of
feisty characters who are
funny and sweet with contemporary resonances to bootWith
characters so real they feel like dear friends and a
compelling storyline, this is
a beautiful, special novel. I loved it and didn't want it to end!What a
wonderful novel. The Giver of Stars is t
he most sweeping, dramatic, richly evocative book, full of brilliantly feisty women. I whipped through the pages, utterly agog, pretty much feeling as though I was on a horse in 1930s Kentucky myself
EpicTimeless, Jojo Moyes' greatest work yet, and one of the most exquisitely-written - and absolutely compulsory - novels about women ever told. Brilliant and perfect and will remind you of why you read; even of why you breatheTHE SUNDAY TIMES NO. 1 BESTSELLER
