I have to be honest and say this isn’t my favourite from Jojo Moyes work but it’s definitely worth the read. Her neighbours, Laura and Matt, do nothing in the slightest to make her feel welcome to the village; on the contrary Matt is out for revenge and Laura is lost in her ever crumbling world. However Matt isn't about to let his dream go and soon puts his plan into action, with consequences that change the lives of everyone.

for me this time, I will definitely read more by Jojo Moyes, I have read most of them already and look forward to her next. I found myself almost pulling my hair out in frustration with her merely accepting his behaviour and thought their toxic marriage brought a sinister edge to the novel, something I’ve never seen before in a Jojo Moyes book. Când Isabel primește moștenire Casa Spaniolă, aflată într-un satuc, de la o rudă îndepărtată și primește vestea că este singura ei șansă de a-și putea reveni financiar, plăti datoriile și întreține copiii, ia decizia de a se muta acolo, dar nu știe că această casă este aproape o ruină, râvnită însă cu ardoare de cei care îi îngrijiseră ani de zile unchiul, în schimbul unei promisiuni de a o moșteni. As soon as I saw her name appear at my computer scene without reading the blurb or looking at the title, I just pushed the request button so hard and I might have broken my mouse!Instead of this happening however to their disgust and bitter disappointment when he passes away the house is bequeathed to his grand-niece Isabel Delancey who is living in London with her two children.

Although some of the characters were hard to like and I was quite astounded that Isabel was quite slow to know what was going on around her. She had zero common sense, it was remarkable how a woman of her age with two kids could willingly know so little about finances and parenting and the world in general.Her books include the bestsellers The Girl You Left Behind, The One Plus One, Me Before You and After You and her short story collection Paris for One and Other Stories. The family have to get to grips with country living, with having no money, no water, no bathroom and no fridge. It's a story of new beginnings and friendship; a novel about relationships and the importance of family life. On the other hand: Matt was truly vindictive, devious, obsessive character who does anything in his power to take control of the house!

A story about a woman who loses not only her husband but her sense of security when she finds out she’s broke, NIGHT MUSIC was beautifully written and completely captured me. I think Moyes’ fans will lap it up and it will hopefully bring a lot more new readers to her fan base.

Matt was as irritating as Isabel, he was an entitled, deluded, self-obsessed, boring loser who never got any comeuppance for all the crap he pulled.
