I have made a mission for myself to read all of this author's books and this is one of about three I haven't got around to reading yet.

This one tells the story of three women who all fell for a guy called Angus. The description put me off a little until I started reading and realised they were triplets who all fell for the boy next door when they were 17. Each sister gets their own chapters and we learn how different they are and how they fell for the charming, down-to-earth Angus.

It's hard to get across my thoughts on this one without giving the entire story away.

I enjoyed the sisters' journey in this. How they finally figured out what they wanted in life and found love. How they overcame their own issues with stuff that had happened in the past and were just so happy now.

Phoebe was the sister that everyone loved, she could do no wrong, so I wasn't worried about her journey. I figured out Eliza's story from early on so it was Rose who really caught my attention. She'd always been the sensible sister, the one who put everyone else first so I was intrigued by what would happen with her. I wasn't disappointed.

I really liked that ending with everyone in Australia. It was nice seeing everyone back together.

"You can hear it's making, in the same way you can hear Joni in her lonely love cabin. Just the idea of the moon cast out on the water. That paints a picture. I can hear excitement and new love all over that Melody's Echo Chamber record. When my last relationship ended a few years ago now, I pissed off to New York for a bit, just to sort of gather my thoughts, and I would take to sitting in a cafe with my headphones on, listening to a piece of music and I had put together words to it in a book. And I remember being quite pleased with something I had just written, taking my headphones off, and that music, Melody's Echo Chamber, was playing on the sound system in the cafe. I listened to it, spellbound, you could just feel the excitement in it. I was listening to that, and I just looked away, who is this? And I shut my book and felt like giving up music. It was just so fucking good. And actually at the end of a tune, you hear them all whooping in the studio. It's like when you hear the Kinks whooping during 'Victoria' – when you're hitting a certain level of energy, bang on the nose, you're allowed to record yourself whooping at your own efforts I think."
