A Day At The Office by Matt Dunn.

This book takes place on Valentines Day and tells the story of several people who work at the same office.  It's a light-hearted romance which I didn't expect given the title and cover of the book.

If I'm honest I was a little disappointed with this book.  It just seemed to lack any spark to keep me interested.  It certainly wasn't a book that I couldn't put down.  Although there were several characters none of them stood out to me and if I'm honest I wasn't really bothered what happened to the characters in the end.

If you want a book that you don't have to think about then this one will do, but it just lacks any magic in the writing to make it stand out from other books on the shelf.

But it was only 99p on Kindle...

You Had Me At Hello by Mhairi McFarlane.

This is the first book by Mhairi McFarlane.  The story flicks between present day, and the main characters past lives at University, but is very easy to read without getting confused between the two times.

The story takes place in Manchester which I loved as I myself have worked and socialise in Manchester.  I really enjoyed knowing every place that was referenced in the book and being able to clearly visualise the scenes.  It really made me feel connected to the story.

I loved the characters and found them all very believable   The story was funny, moving, sad in places and most of all true to life.  This was a brilliant example of chick-lit escapism, the books makes you feel good despite having me in tears at one point.  I didn't hesitate giving it five stars on Goodreads.

Plus, the book has been on offer in paperback and also on Kindle; and I love the cover!

This book was the first book I read on my new Kindle Fire and I really enjoyed it.  I particularly like that I can pick up reading whenever I like so even if I don't have my Kindle with me, I always have my phone, which having the Kindle app, means I can read whenever I have a spare five minutes.  Given that I didn't want to put this book down, that was quite handy.
