The Bright Side Running Club by Josie Lloyd made me miss
running, but not enought to lace my trainers. Ain't nobody running in
temperatures below 15*C!
This novel tells the story of Keira
and how her life changed once she learned of her cancer diagnosis. It's a
serious, heart-gripping novel, made even more emotional by the author's
note at the end saying that many of the things are based on real life, her story.
However,
there were a lot of characters I didn't like at all. Sometimes I didn't
even like Keira, to be honest. Her running friends were the best, her
family plain annoying, even towards the end. It's a nice book, it did
made me empathise, but I kept giving the characters the side-eye. The side plot, that about Keira's business, gave me anxiety. Not because I was on the edge of my chair to see who was the villain (that was pretty obvious), but because Keira was so adamant to close her eyes and ignore a lot of the red flags.
It's a nice story, but pretty forgettable for me. Thnks to the publisher, I got a free e-copy of this book via Net Galley. All thoughts expressed here are my own.
