Sheila O’Flanagan is one of Ireland’s best loved authors and quite rightly so. Her style is fluid, her themes are universal and her characters are realistic. If You Were Me, her latest offering, ticks all of those boxes and more.
This month, the Her.ie book club, Rebecca, Michelle and Cathy get together to discuss Sheila O'Flanagan's latest book,
If You Were Me.
Carlotta O’Keefe is a lot of things; determined, successful and proud. She doesn’t get on with her future mother-in-law and she doesn’t like to show her emotions. She also doesn’t expect to come face to face with her past during her latest business trip but that is exactly what happens.
Years after she last saw him, Carlotta bumps into her first crush Luke Evans while in Seville for a job. He’s everything she remembers but yet different to the boy she once knew. As her plans to return to Dublin (and her dependable fiancé Chris) unravel, so too does her life.
Have a listen to what Rebecca, Michelle and Cathy made of the book below.
Next month, we will be reading Elizabeth Little's Dear Daughter. Feel free to join in with us. We’d love to hear your thoughts and book suggestions so please do give us a shout via Facebook, Twitter or email on Hello@her.ie
