Treuesprünge

by Shari Low

Ginny und Roxy sind seit ihrer Kindheit beste Freundinnen, obwohl sie unterschiedlicher nicht sein könnten. Roxy hat einen anständigen Job in einem nicht ganz jugendfreien Etablissement in London, einen sexbesessenen Mitbewohner und einen Freund, der es mit der Treue nicht so genau nimmt. Ginny hingegen arbeitet in der örtlichen Bibliothek von Farnham Hills und liebt ihren Jugendfreund Andrew über alles.
Als die beiden Frauen plötzlich beschließen, ihre Jobs zu tauschen, sind heftige Turbulenzen und überraschende Erkenntnisse vorprogrammiert ...

LATEST NOVEL, ONE DAY AT A TIME IS OUT NOW!
In a career spanning twenty five years, author Shari Low has published over 40 books, and sold over five million copies around the globe, hitting the best seller charts in many countries including UK, USA, Canada, Germany and Australia.

In 2020, her first novel, What If? (originally published in 2001), was updated and re-released, followed by the sequels What Now? and What Next?. All three novels became international best sellers.

In real life, once upon a time she met a guy, got engaged after a week, and thirty-something years later she lives near Glasgow with the one they said would never last. Their children have now grown and scattered across the world, so she spends an inordinate amount of time on video calls and aeroplanes.

Reviews

[Karschtl]

Die Grundidee der Story fand ich sehr spannend: 2 beste Freundinnen tauschen ihre - extrem gegensätzlichen - Leben für 4 Wochen ein. So findet sich Roxy in der Bibliothek ihres kleines Heimatortes wieder und wohnt zusammen mit ihrer Mutter, 'Tante' und den Westlife-Typen (nur auf der Bettwäsche!), während Ginny in einem Edel-Puff in London arbeitet (nur an der Rezeption!) und mit einem heißen Stripper zusammen wohnt!
Vielleicht hätte ich es im original sprachlich besser gefunden, in der dt. Übersetzung hat es mich nicht so vom Hocker gerissen. (Nach 100 Seiten habe ich dann viele Seiten auch einfach nur überflogen aus Langeweile...) Die Story war auch sehr hanebüchend, vor allem die Tranformation von Ginny ist zu 'over-the-top'. Die Sexszenen wirken zu aufgesetzt, d.h. es ist von der Story meist nicht nachvollziehbar dass die Personen jetzt in die Kiste springen. Tun sie aber trotzdem, und das wird ziemlich ausführlich beschrieben. Hätte ich in einem Chick-Lit in der Deutlichkeit auch gar nicht erwartet.
Das Ende ist ok, aber auch irgendwie nicht nachvollziehbar, weil einige Personen, die dann zusammen sind, das ganze Buch über keine gemeinsamen Szenen haben.

Und das dt. Cover (grüne Turnschuhe) passt überhaupt nicht zum Inhalt... Das stellt ja wohl weder Roxy noch Ginny dar.

It starts of on a good note. And then is degenerates into a very odd book. You can almost see the protagonists unzip their character skin, nimbly step out of it and make a hurried dash to become a polar opposite of their former self. You will read it but you wont remember it.

I picked this up at the local library on a whim. I thought the title sounded good and I really liked the pic on the jacket. The book was excellent, I was laughing and crying and thinking, OH MY for the really unexpected parts! I would recommend this to any of my friends!

I usually pick up a Shari Low as a holiday read and like her stories and her characters are believable, usually 3 dimensional and likeable. This book seemed to be written by a different author. Very odd, too much explicit sex, too little warmth and plot. Give it a miss

Another Great Read

Loved the best friends love for each other warts & all.
Brilliant storyline and an unexpected ending but Shari's storytelling has you hooked from chapter to the last page.

[Teresa D]

Made me laugh out loud

[s a cattell]

Loved loved loved it. Bit raunchy not a bad thing, loads of laughs and lovely story.
Would read again as I am sure I turned pages too quick.

❤️❤️❤️

Awful

[Lisa (LisaS161)]

Great, fun book to read. Lots of adult content & storyline far fetched, but a real feel good read. Have just downloaded another of her Kindle books & will definitely be getting her others in the future.

Not sure what to think of this book. I haven't read chick-lit in a long time. This was a lot more graphic and out there than I was expecting especially since the plot was quite a childish one. But I did enjoy a nice easy read like this post Game of Thrones.

[Hels Hels]

Was totally surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. Funny and not as predictable as I thought it was gonna be.

[Janet]

Hmmm, I read this awhile back and forgot to update it. It's a Brit twist on 2 girls who trade lives and I did enjoy it thoroughly. More graphic sex than I expected.

[Diamira]

Ok, this book had me laughing my but off at some times the humor was great and it was a fun read, some sex hot(just in case you don't like that in a book)all in all I would read it again.

[Hazel]

I think I managed to confirm how much I have gone off chick lit by only making it through 49 pages. But still it had promise. I might hold on to it and try to read it again.

[Borntobepurple]

I love shari's work. i love chick - lit but this book disappointed me a bit .But some part were hilarious, It would make an amazing movie but as a read it disappointed me

[Vidya]

Too much of adult-content..but the climax was amazing :)

[Prerna]

the ending was a bit weird but the book generally in enjoyable.

[Rebecca]

very, very funny

[Cherylreddin]

Funny and heart warming in parts and totally unrealistic in others. Wouldn't be rushing out to read others in the same style.

[Laura]

What a hoot!
