After years of avoiding it, I saw it staring defiantly out at me from the library shelf. A large white hardback book with a spritely figure sitting on a chair, a crop in her teeth and the words "Jilly Cooper" and "Jump!" exclaiming in large letters underneath. I surreptitiously pulled it off the shelf, tucking it under a pile of other books and slid it carefully through the self-checkout.
I finished it in 3 days. Although the overall story was sweet, I had a hard time keeping track of the multitude of characters with odd names as it wove through a long narrative of success and failure.
What did I do next? Went and got Riders, Wicked and Polo out of the library. I'm halfway through Riders and the other two are staring tantalisingly up at me. What else are disappointingly wet summer holidays for? :giggle:
