This book was given to me by my friend Audrey W. for bookcrossing and it came highly recommended. It is a paperback edition.
From the cover:- "A charming, funny and absorbing debut. That love can overcome cultural barriers is no new theme but it's presented with great sensitivity and delicacy".

REVIEW:-"In some ways I thought this book was well-written: I liked the descriptive writing and felt that the author had researched it quite well. However after around 100 pages I got bored and skimmed it a bit. I felt that it then picked up somewhat towards the end. However the last few chapters were very over-dramatic IMHO so I didn't actually read to the end."

Reserved for Raeliz 64 as an arranged swap.

To the finder:-
Welcome to bookcrossing -you have found a travelling book. Please make a journal entry now to say where you found the book in case it has been moved. Then, when you have read it, please come back and make a further entry saying whether or not you enjoyed the book and why. It is now yours to do as you like with it, pass it to a friend or just leave it somewhere different for someone else to find and help it with its' journey. Of course if you can't bear to part with it at the moment then keep it, but please let me know that you have found it. If you join bookcrossing, which is free and spam-free, you can follow the book on its' travels as you will get an email each time it changes hands, but if you prefer to remain anonymous, that's fine too. Please also say what you intend to do with the book next. Thanks for coming onto the site to let me know you have found the book.

I already have books travelling in many countries around the world-a list can be found on my bookcrossing profile.

When re-releasing this book please be aware that airports are not a good place to leave books unless they have a specific book exchange shelf or area, due to security problems, so they may well just be disposed of. Also charity shops may well discard books that have been labelled in any way and they mostly chose only the books in the very best condition
to place on their shelves and discard the rest-so another bad release option.

A very proper English gentleman surprises himself, as well as everyone else in the village, when he falls in love with a Pakistani widow.
Very amusing in parts.

Picked up at today's mini meet at Prezzo, Hinckley. I've heard good things about this book so couldn't resist. Onto Mount Toobe it goes.
