Why read it?
1 author picked Swimming For Beginners as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I picked up this book when I’d just come back from holiday with a bad case of the back-to-the-desk blues, and it was the perfect remedy.
It’s laugh-out-loud funny and the heroine, control freak Loretta, just jumped off the page, as did Phoebe, the little girl who unexpectedly becomes part of her life. It’s feelgood but not fluffy – there were moments that made me cry as well. I love a book where you can imagine the characters carrying on with their lives after you’ve turned the last page, and this one definitely fits that bill.
