urge to jump from trisha ashley ; review

i gave 5/5


the book is about women especially 3 of them who want a major change in their lives ..they want to have a child despite they are a bit at a limit of age

there is sappho (main character and narator who is 39) who is a paranormal writer , writing her book and who moves a lot to write ..she is an excentric single woman as she described herself ..her only problem is her ex boyfriend dave who is not stopping loving her after years of break ..truly breaks ..

we also have mu (39 soon)who desperatly want a child from ambler they are trying different methods to try to have a child and after she will try alone ..

and miranda a shy woman under the big influence of her husband chris who only wants her wife to help him in his carreer and to stay in his back ..but miranda discovers that she can do somthing else despite the disapproval of her husband ..

as men we have nye a potter who will be part of the history and gil as gilbert who has lost her wife in an unknowned way and who tries to discover why
and of course dave and chris

the story takes place in a small village bedd (spelled beth) where sappho miranda nye chris gil are all living (sappho has just moved back after travalling a lot ) ;a very small village ..mu lives in another place but come to visit her friend sappho a lot with special gifts ..

so we see all those characters evoluating in an action place and to want to change life and especially sappho who is looking for the right man to have a child with ..but dave is so jalous and make sappho life so difficult and so stressful but she seems to be less stressed than her friends with this problem

will sappho succeed to find a good man ?
will miranda succeed in changing her life and existing for herself ?
will mu succeed in becoming pregnant ?
that's the 3 questions about the book

i was really happy to read the book especially as i'm 39 too . and i found trisha ashley's book really good, as usual, with lots of new developments ; news and i like to see how sappho changes her mind about a friend ..i won't spoil ..
i was a little afraid to have a book dedicated to 'i want a child desperatly woman ' but it isn't all about that this is more about writing books for sappho ,developping new jobs for miranda and the life in the village .and lots of problems due to dave ..the reasearch of gil's wife ..so it wasn't in a stereotype of i truly want a child ..which relieved me so much

as you will see urge to jump has 2 meanings in the book but i can't tell otherwise i will spoil the story too
well done trisha
