Good at Games Book

With undertones of a Shakespearean love-romp, love's true course gets a distinctly bumpy ride in this, oddly named, fifth novel from Jill Mansell. While the action centres around the court (Bristol-based mansion) of ex-rock star and former alcoholic, Jaz Dreyfuss, his ex-wives, current bubble-head and a selection of their relatives and friends, the lead role and heroine of our tale is taken by feisty, wise-cracking, ex-wife number two, estate agent extraordinaire, Suzy. Suzy's mother, recently departed for designer-heaven (as in the sky, not Bond Street), has left Suzy and her siblings to discover a skeleton (with skin and blood still attached) leaping out of the family cupboard. While the summer bookshelves groan with an ever-growing mountain of books charting modern girl¹s search for "true lurrve", Good At Games is a well-executed example of its genre, with a bunch of characters you can actually care what happens to and a plot that, although you know exactly where it's going, makes you want to keep reading until the very last word. --Carey GreenRead More

    Jill Mansell's hugely entertaining bestseller GOOD AT GAMES is perfect for you if you love reading Cathy Kelly, Milly Johnson and Lucy Diamond. Reviewers love Jill Mansell: 'A lovely uplifting read' Good HousekeepingSuzy fell for Harry the moment she showed him her husband's sperm sample. It didn't really belong to her husband, though, because she wasn't married. It wasn't a sperm sample either, it was a drinks carton containing the dregs of her milkshake. But when you're trying to get off a speeding charge you just have to improvise, don't you? And it wasn't actually love at first sight. Still, it was undeniably a healthy attack of lust. And it might just be the beginning of something special...What readers are saying about Good at Games: 'This book is hilariously funny, addictive and you just can't stop once you've started. It's my favourite romantic comedy book of all time' Amazon reviewer, 5 stars'A really fun read in Jill's usual style. Plenty of ups and downs and truly enviable characters' Amazon reviewer, 5 stars'Another great book by Jill Mansell. It's amazing how she has so many interweaving storylines going on and yet she juggles them perfectly' Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars
