Featured Reviews
You, Me, Everything by Catherine Isaac starts off as an early relaxed story with humour as Jess and her son, William set off to visit his father, Adam in France where he has renovated a ‘castle’ into a holiday resort. I have been reading some fairly heavy novels lately so I was pleased to have an easy read. Lovely location with a bit of french thrown in!
However there is a lot more to this story and there are many heartbreaking issues that the characters confront such as alcoholism and Huntington’s Disease. This story moved from being almost frivolous to being quite deep and confronting.
The range of characters were excellent with realistic portrayals of the kids, parents and friends.
The author cleverly kept our interest with different relationships and ‘love’ interests without lessening the impact of the deeper issues.
I would highly recommend this book as some that is both easy to read and heartbreaking!
Thank you to Netgalley and Simon & Schuster (Australia) for an ARC ebook to read and review.
Jess is taking her 10-year-old son, William, to France for the summer, so he can spend time with his father, Adam. Adam has never been an involved father, even missing his son’s birth. But Jess’ mother is dealing with a debilitating illness and stresses how important it is for William to bond with his father. Trouble is Adam's too busy running holiday accommodation at a chateau in the Dordogne region and hanging out with his possessive girlfriend.
This is a moving tale about a mother putting her son’s best interests above her disappointment in her ex. It’s the sort of story that works best when you don’t know too much going in. It's a heartfelt and emotional read, however I was prepared for much more heartbreak within the timeline so it didn’t quite offer me ‘everything’.
