Author of the Week: Emily Barr
Emily Barr is the author of 8 novels, the most recent being The Life You Want which I’ve just reviewed. The Life You Want is a sequel to Backpack, Emily’s debut novel. Her novels, in order of publication, are: Backpack, Baggage, Cuban Heels, Atlantic Shift, Plan B, Out of my Depth, The Sisterhood and The Life You Want. As I said, I’ve read The Life You Want and I’ve also read The Sisterhood which I loved.
According to her bio on her website (which hasn’t been updated since 2004!) Emily is married with 2 sons and lives in France.
Although I have loved two of Emily’s books I found Backpack and Cuban Heels difficult to get into and didn’t finish either. However I have Plan B and Baggage in my large TBR pile and I look forward to reading them as Emily writes a great story. They are chick lit but they always seem to have a dark tone to them which makes them even better!
I wholly recommend The Sisterhood as that’s probably one of my favourite books ever. There’s no news yet of a 9th book but I sincerly hope there will be one!
