When two women accidentally take each other’s bags at the gym, it sets off a series of events and misunderstandings. Sam and Nisha are two mothers in their 40s living in London, each dealing with personal issues in their careers and families. I always enjoy reading Jojo Moyes, and this was more comedic than some of her other books, while still being thoughtful and poignant.
“[Someone Else’s Shoes] showcases Moyes’ ability to portray emotion and female friendship with themes of love, betrayal, family, and hope. It is action packed and will have readers rooting for Nisha and Sam.”—Booklist, STARRED review
“This is a novel about women of a certain age who suddenly find themselves invisible — to their spouses, to their colleagues, to the world — and find pleasure in being “seen” by each other.”—The New York Times
“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 New York Times bestselling author
