About this listen

From MILLION COPY BESTSELLER Judy Leigh

'Judy’s done it again. Every woman over a certain age should read this wonderful book' Jennifer Bohnet

Deep in the Somerset countryside, the Combe Pomeroy village library hosts a monthly book club.

Ruth the librarian fears she’s too old to find love, but a discussion about Lady Chatterley’s Lover makes her think again.

Aurora doesn’t feel seventy-two and longs to relive the excitement of her youth, while Verity is getting increasingly tired of her husband Mark’s grumpiness and wonders if their son’s imminent flight from the nest might be just the moment for her to fly too. And Danielle is fed up with her cheating husband. Surely life has more in store for her than to settle for second best?

The glue that holds Combe Pomeroy together is Jeannie. Doyenne of the local cider farm and heartbeat of her family and community, no one has noticed that Jeannie needs some looking after too. Has the moment for her to retire finally arrived, and if so, what does her future hold?

From a book club French exchange trip, to many celebrations at the farm, this is the year that everything changes, that lifelong friendships are tested, and for some of the women, they finally get the love they deserve.

Judy Leigh is back with her unmistakable recipe of friendship and fun, love and laughter. The perfect feel-good novel for all fans of Dawn French, Dee Macdonald and Cathy Hopkins.

Nice story, just not my favourite from this author

I have enjoyed several of Judith Leigh’s novels. I enjoyed this one too, but it is just not my favourite. Her fabulous sense of humour and her ability to catch the reader by surprise were not as evident in this story as it has been in others. Great character development as usual, but for some reason this particular story felt safe, and was quite predictable. The narrator was what kept me interested … but I am not deterred … I am looking forward to enjoying more books from this author.
