Hello there. My debut novel, Tell Me How This Ends, was a BBC Radio 2 Book Club pick and my second novel, The Last Time I Saw You is out now. Both are published by Lake Union (Amazon Publishing). In Germany, my books are published by Droemer, as Café Leben and In den Augen Meiner Mutter.
I've also written an interiors book, Victorian Modern, out with Thames & Hudson. You can find me on social media as @joleevers and my website is joleevers.com

Tell Me How This Ends by Jo Leevers
"Absolutely loved this book. Henrietta and Annie were so finely drawn - found myself really caring about their stories. The reading buzz I got from Tell Me How This Ends reminded me of how I felt when I first read Kate Atkinson’s Jackson Brodie books." Read more of this review »

The Last Time I Saw You by Jo Leevers
"I was so emotional about this book. Through personal experience with my own mother, it made me really think about a mother’s perspective of why she has to run away. It really put relationships and family at wars into perspective. It’s a must read! "

“Here it comes again, thinks Henrietta, that old feeling of being on the fringes of a club, discovering that everyone else has been a fully paid-up member for ages while she’s still trying to figure out the rules.”
Jo Leevers, Tell Me How This Ends

“She was told she’d been ‘sectioned’ – and she quite liked the sound of that word, imagining how nice it would be if you could do that, slice the parts of your life into neat portions, trimming off the bad bits. If she could, she would cut out her entire marriage and throw it in the sluice bucket, like something bloated and diseased.”
Jo Leevers, Tell Me How This Ends

“Henrietta can feel that familiar blank expression forming on her face, the one that protected her through her lonely schooldays and then university and jobs where nobody spoke to her. It’s the face that hides the rising panic of knowing that she’s failed again.”
Jo Leevers, Tell Me How This Ends
