Jojo Moyes is the woman behind some of our favourite novels and her new release is set to capture the hearts of readers yet again.
Her novel We All Live Here will be published on February 11th and people are claiming it is her best book yet.
None other than Irish author Marian Keyes has confirmed this is the writer's greatest novel with Chris Whitaker saying it's the type of book that puts a smile on your face when you're reading.
The novel follows bestselling author Lila who discovers her husband was cheating on her with a woman from her children's school.
We All Live Here sees the Kennedy's blended family tackle their own struggles all under one roof.
'Welcome to the Kennedy household:
'Lila wrote a bestseller about keeping your marriage alive, before discovering her ex was playing happy families with another woman. A woman she sees every day at school pick-up.
'Bill, her stepdad, moved in after Lila’s mum died. He’s kind, old-fashioned, and driving her absolutely nuts.
'Celie, Lila’s eldest, hates school. Hates it so much she’s stopped going. Her mother’s fine with that – because she doesn’t know yet.
'Violet is nine and sings age-inappropriate rap songs, laughs at fart jokes and Lila dearly hopes she’ll never, ever change.
'And Truant the dog, who has just bitten the American actor who’s suddenly landed on the Kennedys' doorstep.
'This is Gene – Lila’s estranged father, and no one’s idea of a role model. He walked out on Lila and her mum years ago – and wherever he goes domestic discord follows.
'Because Gene’s presence changes things in unexpected ways. Soon the girls discover a kindred spirit in a man always chasing life’s joy. Bill even loosens up. And Lila finds herself, astonishingly, dating.
'Something is happening to the Kennedy household – but what is it? And will it break, or save, their family?'
Jojo Moyes won us over with her novel Me Before You so there's no doubt this will also be a major success.
We All Live Here will be published on February 11th.
