Critics Review
Sex and horses: who could ask for more?
Sex and horses: who could ask for more? * Sunday Telegraph *‘Fun, sexy and unputdownable – a classic’ * Marian Keyes *Joyful and mischievous. I know of no woman my age who won’t admit that Rupert Campbell-Black nearly ruined them for other men for life … * Jojo Moyes *Jilly Cooper is the funniest and the sharpest writer there is. A heroine, an influence and a legend to half my generation of female authors (the fun half) * Jenny Colgan *Jilly Cooper’s writing is hilarious, witty, wise, astute, flawlessly entertaining and a celebration of all that is the most fun about being British * Helen Fielding, author of BRIDGET JONES DIARY *Exhilarating, irresistible and one of our nation’s most beloved novels. If you’re about to read Riders for the first time, you’re in for a joyous experience! * Jill Mansell *It’s all here: swooning romance, skulduggery in the stables and, yes, bonking; all set in the Cotswold countryside. Tally ho! * Elle *Blockbusting fiction at its best * Mail on Sunday *I defy anyone not to enjoy her book. It is a delight from start to finish * Daily Mail *Has any book of the past 70 years given as much pleasure as Cooper’s rumpy-pumpy, show-jumping classis? * The Times *
