A genuinely entertaining book, a really cracking story
Stylist
A compelling, full-of-heart novel about the power of female friendship
Kirkus
Do shoes make the woman... or does the woman make the shoes? Jojo Moyes' new novel is a delightful reverse-Cinderella story of two women who seem polar opposites - until circumstance forces them to experience each other's lives. Nobody writes women the way Jojo Moyes does - recognizably real and complex and funny and flawed - which is what makes her novels an auto-buy for me
Jodi Picoult, #1 NYT bestselling author
Someone Else's Shoes is a fantastic novel about the power of female friendships that hugely resonates with me; I'm such a big fan of Jojo's work and of her brilliant, joyful writing. It was an honour to be asked to narrate the story and I hope listeners enjoy the audiobook as much as I enjoyed recording it
Daisy Ridley
Freaky Friday is all grown up in this heartfelt and heartwarming tale of two women in very different circumstances.... From the storyteller behind Me Before You comes a story of reinvention that just might inspire you to make a change yourself-just buy your own shoes
Good Housekeeping
Charming ... Moyes is never short on her trademark clever observations ...[her] fans will have a ball
Publishers Weekly
Showcases Moyes' ability to portray emotion and female friendship with themes of love, betrayal, family, and hope. It is action packed and will have readers rooting for Nisha and Sam
Booklist, Starred Review
A stirring tale of sisterhood, survival and being seen
Red
A warm, witty and uplifting novel and it's a joy to spend time with Jojo Moyes' flawed, likeable characters. Another winner from a fabulous author
Sunday Express
One of our absolute fave authors . . . This brilliant story is a sure-fire hit
Sun
Something to get excited about . . . [The] most compelling and readable of novels, which will make you wonder what it's really like to walk in someone else's shoes
Glamour UK
[A] captivating new blockbuster. Superb. Once you step into the lives of Sam and Nisha, you'll be racing through the pages, breathless to find out what happens next. It's a sassy strut of a novel, full of twists and high-adrenaline moments, but ultimately it's got heart too. The characters are relatable, memorable and engaging, and you'll be rooting for your favourites to end up walking tall
Daily Express
A book we all need in our lives right now. A fabulous and funny romp
Woman & Home Book Club
A paean to women's solidarity wrapped up in a very funny revenge-fuelled caper
The Times
Riotously fun and an ode to strong female friendships
Prima
It's a hit
Sunday Times
Empathy and an extravagant plot collide in Moyes's big hug of a novel. Its real heart is the burgeoning friendship between two brilliantly realised but very different fortysomething women
Mail on Sunday
Very few authors have the power to make you laugh on one page and cry on the next. Moyes is one of them
New York Times
Somehow heartbreaking and uplifting at the same time
Yours
The antidote to February that we all need. A blast of a book . . . There's something rather giddily joyful about this tale of women pulling together, and Moyes writes about their high jinks, tribulations and amorous entanglements with warmth and a wonderfully wicked sense of humour
THE TIMES 'BOOK OF THE MONTH'
Explores themes of female friendship, motherhood, ageing, love and disillusionment. Moyes brings her main characters - a unlikely group of women thrown together - to life, each as flawed as they are brilliant, and stronger together
Grazia
Full of fun, unlikely friendships . . . and female empowerment, it's a welcome escape. A funny romp
Woman
Hard-hitting and laugh-aloud . . . Two women's lives intertwine and change profoundly in this story full of richly imagined characters
The Times
Someone Elses Shoes is SO MUCH FUN. Beautiful about female friendship and brilliant on being a woman of a certain age who won't take any more sh*te!
MARIAN KEYES
A heartfelt story of mix-ups, mess-ups and making the most of second chances
Platinum
A love letter to the strength of female friendship and how women can really be there for each other
Good Housekeeping
Her advice is invaluable
i
This blast of a book throws two wildly different women together for a giddily joyful caper that reminds anyone who may have forgotten — don’t mess with a woman over 40
