I read Someone Else’s Shoes by Jo Jo Moyes for our book club and then we didn’t meet. Nevertheless, it’s a good read.
So, two women end up swapping gym bags and therefore shoes when one of them leaves in a hurry. The gym goes bankrupt, and there is more to the designer shoes than either woman could possibly imagine.
Neither has a perfect marriage and having to live in each other’s shoes for a while makes life even more complicated.
Some say the story is far-fetched. It is and it becomes almost like a Whitehall farce towards the end. Yet it comes good for all of the women involved. It is all a little improbable but sometimes stories have to be that way. Think Dickens, Molière, Shakespeare and most pantomimes.
Jo Jo Moyes certainly persuades us to watch the backs of all of the ladies that feature in Someone Else’s Shoes.
