A gorgeous novel of love, friendship and a horse named Boo by Jojo Moyes, internationally bestselling author of Me Before You, After You and the new bestseller Still Me.

'A tale brimming with tenderness and romance.' - Marie Claire

In a hidden corner of London, Henri Lachapelle is teaching his granddaughter and her horse to defy gravity, just as he had done in France, fifty years previously. But when disaster strikes, fourteen-year-old Sarah is left to fend for herself.

Forced to share a house with her charismatic ex-husband, her professional judgement called into question, lawyer Natasha Macauley's life seems to have gone awry. When her path crosses that of Sarah, she sees a chance to put things right.

But she doesn't know that Sarah is keeping a secret, one that will change all their lives forever . . .

I couldn't put this book down. I also love horses, they were never mine to ride but living in a semi rural village there were plenty of fields with them in,

& strangely they always seemed to come to me. To them I told my secrets, they were my confidants, my comfort, & my only source of love. A lonely, deeply traumatized, oddball of a child in 1960's, 1970's, & up until 1984 when I married, I hadn't fitted in with the other kids. I desperately wanted a family, dogs, horses, & elephants! I got the family, dogs & cats, but the horses & elephants remain dreams, it's good to keep some.
I love how Jojo Moyes, through acknowledgements gives us readers some idea of the research & inspiration for her stories. The reality behind this one is tragically sad, but another part of it gives hope for the futures of so many young lives.
I couldn't help but hear Morgan Freeman's voice playing the art of one character! I hope he knows about the charity, he also loves horses.

Very nearly didn't read this!

This is the last jo jo moyes book to read. I just couldn't get past the first few pages and kept giving up, as I found it boring. I thought the same about silver bay as well, but I persevered and what a great story. I googled all the horse moves and the French academy so I could see the moves described in the book. Don't get me wrong I'm not a horse person, but this book is much more than that, and now I understand the beginning as it was the foundation for one of the characters, so now I have read all of jo Jo's books, can't say any one of them I didn't like

Even if you don't care for horses, read this book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 December 2018

Part quest, part redemptive love, part comedy, part horses, this is a story about, well, whatever you want it to be about. And I for one (male, old, used to ride a lot) loved it. Like a lot of stories the first 100 pages maybe spend a bit too long on scene setting and back story, but when you get past that, the writer achieves lift off. Pacy, narrative driven, and with a 90% accuracy on the horse front, it fairly whizzes by. The ending is as spottable as a Palomino (and about as subtle) but it doesn't matter because the rest is so endearing. Maybe not the best JoJo book, but certainly in the top three.

A wonderful tale full of love and the love of a horse. I am so sad to have finished it. Sarah, the central character, is a typical teenager in many ways but extremely untypical in others. Her tale is a beautiful one of mixed fortunes. As the characters developed I came to love them all. So pleased I followed the recommendation and read it. I love Jo Jo Moyes and this story is very different to the others I have read but equally beautiful.

Compelling reading

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 February 2020

I loved the characters in this story and the blending of gritty realism and dreams. The character building is realistic rather then pie in the sky so I was often angry or annoyed with a much loved character for having flaws! The events happening through out the book kept me on the edge of my seat often and sometimes afraid to read the next page but compelled to know what happened, good or bad! This book took me away from my usual sci-fi reading - glad I it did. A wonderful read!

A Good Ride(!)

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 October 2014

I love Moyes's writing, and when looking for another of her books recently, I read one or two reviews for this one which surprised me and nearly put me off. However, I read it and enjoyed it. One criticism by someone was the 'whole legal bit', which they hadn't enjoyed, so I read on and on, expecting to find this section of the book any moment. It never arrived! The central adult female character happens to be a solicitor/barrister and, so that we can understand what drives, motivates and preoccupies her, causing problems along the way, there has to be reference to her work, but it is mostly in passing and certainly not onerous to read. There was one small chapter concerning Natasha, the solicitor/barrister, being in court and questioning a child-psychologist and a teacher, but this is not long, and, in fact, goes to the heart of the story and her own relationship with Sarah, the young teenager who has entered Natasha's life. More to the point, I found some of the pickle Sarah ends up in pushing the bounds of believability - which is unusual for Moyes. And the fact that Natasha and Max fail to ask the one, over-riding question of Sarah concerning how she is managing to afford to feed and stable a horse, was intensely irritating! And in no way explained away by their preoccupation with their own problems, as Sarah pinching money becomes one of these problems.... Don't be put off reading this Moyes book by indifferent reviews by people who fail to understand the relationship between certain parts of the narrative and the characterisation! It is, as always - and despite the flaws - well written, enjoyable and hopeful.

Disappointing, unbelievable plot.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 March 2018

Found the book very slow to start and have to say it didn't pick up. The story lacked any depth, nothing really happened and the ending was predictable from the start. The young girl Sarah came across being very rude and ungrateful and annoying. Found myself rushing through the second half of book. I find Jojo Moyes to be hit and miss.
