Review: Down London Road

Down London Road by Samantha Young

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Down London Road by Samantha Young is a follow up to On Dublin Street. This book starts a short while after the first one ended and focuses on Jo, Jocelyn's friend and co-worker from Club 39. This book was funny and well-written and had just enough angst to make it worth it. Although Jo did get a little aggravating with her self-doubt, it was annoying because it was real. People really do behave that way, managing to sabotage the good things in their lives due to insecurities and past traumatic experiences. Lucky for her, Cam doesn't take any of her crap. Cam is an absolute hottie. Tattoed, smart and loving. Yum!

Be Caledonia!

Audible Audiobook "Review: Down London Road"
Would you listen to Down London Road again? Why?
Probably not. The narration was out of this world, the story was great, but I have so many books "To Read" that I probably would not revisit this one anytime soon.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Down London Road?
The bathroom scene between Cam and Jo. You could just feel the sexual frustration and longing leaping at you.

Have you listened to any of Elle Newlands’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No I have not. But I really, really enjoyed her performance and would definitely love to hear her narrating again.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
This book did both. Well a little bit. There were many funny parts and also a few areas that made my eyes tingle with the threat of tears. I don't think any fell though.

Any additional comments?
A continuation of the story of the lives of people we met in "On Dublin Street" this book stands omits own feet enough that it's not an absolute necessity to read "On Dublin Street" before this one, but I would still recommend it as that was a great book too.
