I travel a lot, and tend to rarely find a minute for myself when I am at home. I came back a few days ago from a wonth away, with a massive amount of work to do. Nevertheless, when I saw that I had received "One Apple Tasted" I decided I would give it a chance. Revelation! I suffered every time I had to interrupt myself, and read it almost non-stop in a day...
This book is really brilliant, and I loved it: breathtaking and hilarious, well written and modern, catching many society traits and human characteristics!
I doubt there is anyone out there who wouldn't enjoy it, recognise him/herself in the character Dora - an attaching "everyman", laugh, but also start thinking about their own lives (love life, priorities, etc). I highly recommend this book, and congratulate its author: I now look forward to her next one.
In ONE APPLE TASTED, Young displays one of the most charming talents of classic English writers, the ability to laugh affectionately at their own way of life whilst nevertheless being deeply in love with it. Quirky, unique and fun. We expect great things from Josa Young.
perfect, lovely book - anyone would really enjoy reading it
Josa Keyes has pulled off a sensitive and intelligent novel in the romantic fiction genre - no easy task especially for a first book. And its a great read as well!
Great read, for all ages and both sexes.
