Representaion Supposing Books Pillow Talk
What keeps you up all night? They were high-school sweethearts who hadn't seen each other for seventeen years. And suddenly they're in front of each other - in a tiny sweet shop in the middle of nowhere. Neither can quite believe it. These days, Petra works in London as a jeweller while Arlo has left his rock-and-roll lifestyle for the wilds of North Yorkshire. Out of the blue, their paths have just crossed. But for first love to have a second chance both must put their pasts to bed. However, there are skeletons in Arlo's closet which keep him up at night. And just what is it that causes Petra to sleepwalk?Rating Of Books Pillow Talk

3.3/5 stars.It is OKAY. I don't hate it, but I can't wait for it to finish.I'm always not comfortable with sex scenes, and this one is a bit sexy, well, it's an adult book. And I don't know much about music, so whenever Arlo's part comes and he talks about music with his students, I'm starting to get bored. I love Mrs. McNeil, she plays a very big role in the book, even though she doesn't appear often. And the tanzanite, I'd love to touch it, to have it in my hand.One thing I like about thisThis is the first Freya North book I ever read (back when magazines occasionally came with a free book as your summer read) and it remains my favourite. The characters are engaging and you so want to root for them. I really enjoy reading books based in locations Im familiar with and Freya paints a wonderfully accurate picture of some of my favourite childhood spots; Suggitts in Great Ayton continue to do some of the best ice cream Ive ever had. Petras awe and love of her Tanzanite sparked its
This isn't the sort of book I normally read so if you like light and fluffy chick lit then this would probably suit you. I got it free with a magazine and decided to try it out. I found it all a bit stupid to be honest. The story was alright (if obvious) but the characters were vapid and the changes of perspective and tense were hugely irritating. If you are completely obsessed with tanzanite then you'll probably enjoy this book which is heavy on descriptions of it. Personally, one description
Pillow Talk reminded me of Twilight in that while you're reading, you are caught in the story, but the second you put the book down, you say, "WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST READ?!?"In this story, Mary Sue, oops I mean Petra Flint, reminisces about some weird stuff that happened when she was a kid, dumps a jerk boyfriend, texts her friends (in irritating textspeak more befitting a ten-year-old than a grown woman), makes some kickass jewelry, and finally hooks up with the Boy of Her Dreams (TM). Also,
Every once in a while, it is important for a girl to read a trashy romance novel, especially if she's on vacation. Fortunately, Freya North's Pillow Talk is smart and entertaining, as well as a page-turner. Petra Flint is a talented jewelry designer in London. She starts the novel dating a horrid businessman and taking all of his crap. When they inevitably break up, she escapes the city to go north. There, she runs into a high school sweetheart and romance stirs up. However, these things are
I always enjoy Freya North's books (with the exception of "Cat" for some reason!) & I had high hopes for this as it was the winner of "The Romantic Novel of the Year Award 2008" - I wasn't disappointed.Though the story is nothing new - childhood sweethearts are parted only to find each other again unexpectedly, then have to face various problems & overcome the usual misunderstandings etc etc. However the likeable characters & the fact that the story trots along at a good pace all
Read the full review here: http://thereandtheir.wordpress.com/20...To be honest I did not complete the entire book. Simply because the story was oh so obvious right from the start, and personally, I do not like to read stories where everything is so cliched, and works out exactly as you think it would.The story starts with Petra being in an emotionally abusive relationship with a jerk face of a handsome and rich guy who treats her like a piece of furniture. But, like every true heroine she
