Another fab read! In this book, the third in this series, we catch up with some of the characters from the previous books to find out how life happened since the last book!
We meet Carly again, now married to Sam for 18 months. They have been living in London for the last 2 years as Sam moved his film job there whilst the boys finished school. Now it's time for Carly to move their life to LA and she isn't sure she wants to do it. The boys have decided to stay at home while they continue with further education and she doesn't want to be away from them again!
In comes Aunt Val again, she turns up one day and decides she is going to do the things on the bucket list her and her dear friend Josie made before she passed away. Along for the ride, go Carol (Carly's sister in law) and Jess, now married to Arnie, (Sam's best friend)
A fun filled action-packed adventure for them all! Val starts to see some cracks appearing in the relationships with the girls and their partners and tries to find out what's going on as nobody is saying anything! Jess is all set to go back to the UK after she overhears a devastating secret from Arnie on the phone, when she bumps into Carly at the airport and is convinced to go back to LA with them. A few surprises on the way, very funny and adventurous, sometimes you feel as though you are with them!
And another trip to jail.... just as the last book finished! A great read!

From the Publisher
Dear Reader,
Thank you so much for landing on my book page!
I hope you will love what you find here. At the heart of all my novels is friendship, the kind of relationships between women (and sometimes men) that bonds them together in the good times and in the bad. My characters sometimes experience the worst of life – betrayal, broken relationships, illness, bereavement, heartbreak – but my stories are always about how they overcome those challenges with great friends, the kind who lift you up, tell you brutal truths and make you laugh, even in the moments when there isn’t much to smile about. They capture the very best things about being part of a friendship group or family that isn’t perfect but manages to survive heartaches and come out wiser, stronger and more sure than ever that the people who love them are on their side.
And always, they’re full of real laughter, real tears and real life.
Love,
Shari x

What If? And What Now? are previous novels written by Shari Low and this one catches up with the characters from those books, but can be read as a standalone too. The books follow a group of five friends over the years – Carly, Carol, Kate, Jess and Sarah.What Next? begins at the end of 2021 with Carly in a Los Angeles jail cell!Carly Morton is a writer, mum to Mac (19) and Benny (17) by ex-husband Mark Barwick, and she is now married to Sam (actor turned film producer).Kate Smith is Carly’s friend and neighbour, she is married to architect Bruce, with three kids in their twenties (Tallulah, Cameron and Zoe).Carol is married to Carly’s brother Callum Cooper and is also her long-time friend. Carol and Callum have twin daughters Charlotte and Antonia (20).Jess Latham is Carly’s friend, lives with her boyfriend Arnie, and has a son at Uni (Josh).The other major character in the book is the brilliant Val Murray. She is Carly’s aunt, in her sixties and married to Don.The chapters are written in the first person from the viewpoints of Carly, Val, Carol and Jess. These are very well written characters and each one has a distinctive voice, so the reader can easily follow who is talking.The main body of the story is based in the United States. Val, Carly and Carol fly there – Carly to see her husband, Val to try to complete her Bucket List. This is a lovely idea and I really enjoyed following her antics.There are themes of friendship and family in the book. Alongside a great deal of humour, there are many serious issues explored too including loss, illness, ageing, infidelity and controlling partners.It is written in an informal, chatty style, and there are so many clever and laugh-out-loud funny bits, which I especially enjoyed. I also loved the strong female characters, especially as the main friends are all around my age (in their fifties) with grown up kids, so I could relate to some of the things they had to deal with. The book is very well written and I love Val, she’s one of my favourite fictional characters I have discovered in a long time, she’s hilarious, so straight-talking!This is the first of Shari Low’s books I have read, but I’ll be reading more in the future!9 out of 10
