Moyes is the queen of the classy weepy and this won’t disappoint. A masterclass in story-telling that fans of Me Before You will adore * Elle *Another heart-stoppingly brilliant novel from Jojo Moyes * Marie Claire *Jojo Moyes paints a genuinely moving, beautiful picture of how love and belief will ultimately win the war, even if they can’t win the battle. The Girl You Left Behind is a true work of art * Fabulous Magazine *Wonderfully well-written and completely engrossing, with exquisitely drawn characters in a brilliantly plotted narrative. It will make you think long after you finish the final page * Daily Mail *Even as Moyes tackles the inflammatory issues around art stolen during wartime, she never loses sight of the driving engine of her narrative … this pleasurably assured writer skilfully balances the quotidian and the comic with the broad and universal, leaving us with the tantalising possibility of a potential caper to come * Independent on Sunday *Praise for Jojo Moyes * - *You simply have to read it * Closer *A triumph * Elle *A timeless love story * Red *
