Since November 2009Double Take: Keeping It In The Family/Whose Life is it Anyway?
Posted on Tuesday, April 21st, 2009 by Leah
These are the two covers under which Sinead Moriarty’s new novel is called. Both are beautiful covers but don’t be fooled that they are two separate books. They are one and the same. Keeping it in the Family and Whose Life is it Anyway was released on 16th April and the synopsis reads:
It’s tricky for Niamh O’Flaherty, growing up in a North London home that’s a shrine to all things Irish. But it’s even trickier being an adult and realizing that her family expects her to settle down with a nice Irish lad, especially now that she’s living in Dublin. When Niamh finally meets the love of her life he is the last person she would expect to fall for her. Pierre is older and an intellectual, but she loves his ability to laugh at himself, his calmness and strength of character, and, of course, his stunning looks. There’s just one problem: if Pierre’s parents — Jean and Fleur — are sniffy about their pride and joy hooking up with a girl who writes a fluffy newspaper column, her parents, Mick and Annie, are going to go ballistic when they hear that their daughter intends to marry someone who couldn’t be less Irish if he tried . . .
It sounds interesting and I really want to read it. Which cover/title do you prefer? I really can’t pick I love the writing and colour of the one of the right but also love the graphics of the one on the left.
