Literary Lunch: Jojo Moyes
Join us as we welcome the literary superstar that is Jojo Moyes to Simply Books!
We're absolutely thrilled to have Jojo joining us to discuss her new book We All Live Here. Hosted by the incredible Daisy Buchanan.
What's more, we'll have snacks and light bites to share as well as a hot or soft drink included with each ticket- along with a copy of the book, of course!
We can't wait to welcome you for this very special event.
With her signature warmth and wicked sense of humour, Jojo Moyes is back with a moving exploration of family, love and starting again.
Lila Kennedy has a lot on her plate. A recently broken marriage, two wayward daughters, a house that is falling apart, and an elderly stepfather who seems to have quietly moved in. Not to mention a once promising writing career that is now in freefall. So when her real dad - a man she has barely seen since he ran off to Hollywood thirty-five years ago - suddenly appears on her doorstep wanting to make amends, it feels like the final straw.
But it turns out even the family you thought you could never forgive might have something to teach you: about love, friendship, and what it actually means to be family.
