Sinossi
Un solo errore, e Kate Jones ha dovuto cambiare nome e città. Adesso abita con la figlia a Parkview Road, un tranquillo quartiere residenziale, dove nessuno sa chi è lei né cos'ha fatto e dove spera di costruirsi una nuova vita. Il primo passo è stringere amicizia con due vicine di casa, Gisela e Sally. Eppure, sebbene entrambe siamo molto gentili, Kate è a disagio con loro: Gisela è una casalinga allegra e una mamma attenta e amorevole; Sally una brillante donna in carriera, sostenuta da un marito che l'adora. Come può Kate, una madre single dall'oscuro passato, essere alla loro altezza? Kate sa già che è solo questione di tempo, poi sarà costretta a trasferirsi di nuovo. Invece, quando il segreto di Kate viene dolorosamente alla luce, Gisela e Sally reagiscono in modo totalmente inaspettato. Fanno cadere la maschera. Allora Kate si rende conto che non è sempre oro quello che luccica, e che pure dietro le apparenze più insospettabili si nascondono frustrazioni e delusioni cocenti. E che è dunque arrivato il momento di smettere di fidarsi degli altri. Perché le vere amiche rimangono al tuo fianco nonostante tutto, pronte a sostenerti e a darti la forza di perdonarti e di guardare, finalmente, al futuro.

I’ve read a couple of other books by Kerry Fisher before and while both were really different from one another I really enjoyed them so I was looking forward to picking up another. The Woman I Was Before by Kerry Fisher is being called a gripping emotional page turner with a twist but personally I d Leggi tutto
Kate Jones is running away. She's left her old life behind. She's changed her own name and her daughters. Starting afresh on Parkview Road, a brand new street full of newly built houses. Her new neighbours seem to have it all: Gisela with her busy life, Sally with her exciting spontaneous marriage.
Gripping, emotional, and heart-warming!!! My first experience reading Kerry Fisher made me so happy—I could barely put down her latest novel The Woman I was Before! I found this books to be a mix of thought-provoking, feel-good, and suspenseful. Basically, my perfect type of book to pick up and get l Leggi tutto
This book offers us a look at three fictional families and the true dramas taking place behind the many social media posts they offer up daily. Gisele, Jack and their children appear to be the perfect family. With Gisele's constant posts depicting family events and new purchases, their lives seem pe Leggi tutto
I'm going with a 2.5 star review here. The first half or more of this book really got under my skin. I could not feel any type of complimentary feeling for any character. Every single one of them were completely self-absorbed and wallowing in their own misery. And, instead of doing anything about it Leggi tutto
The Woman I Was Before exemplifies the idea that things aren't always what they seem to be! The story was a little slow at first and I had to keep track of the characters, but once their roles fell into place, the story really took off. Kate Jones and her teenage daughter Daisy have just moved into a Leggi tutto
