plus all the old favourites from the Malbry series including of course Roy’s Brodie Boys.Īs like Gentlemen & Players despite just finishing it I will start reading it again shortly, it really is that good. Joanne Harriss Whitbread-shortlisted Chocolat was made into an Oscar-nominated film starring Juliette Binoche and Johnny Depp.She is the author of many other bestselling novels, including Lollipop Shoes, Peaches for Monsieur le Curé, and The Strawberry Thief, all also featuring Vianne Rocher. It does take a bit of following and I wasn’t always sure whether Rebecca was talking to her self or teling Roy the tale.ĭeliberate or not, Joanne Harris drops names of characters from previous books Emily, White, Gloria, etc. I’m not a great reader meaning it took me a good 5 or 6 days for me to complete A Narrow Door, partly due to me having to dip back in to Blueeyedboy every now and then to see if I was missing anything.

I wasn’t disappointed it was even better than I hoped for. The follow-up to 2005’s Gentlemen and Players, it’s set in a second-rate boys’ grammar school in the north of England and is a magnificently plotted and twisty journey to the heart of a 24-year-old. Finished at last 🙂Īfter reading Gentlemen & Players at least 5 times, Blueeyedboy and A Different Class 2 or 3 times I was really excited when I heard about A Narrow Door and couldn’t wait to read it. The first in Joanne Harris Malbry Cycle of twisted psychological thrillers, followed by Blueeyedboy and Different Class. Here’s the problem though – I keep hearing names I recognise and despite the fact I re-read Gentlemen & Players, Blueeyedboy and A Different Class recently I found I was having to go back to one of the other after seeing a character mentioned. Different Class the last in a trilogy of dark, chilling and compelling psychological thrillers from bestselling author Joanne Harris Finns ven som. I started reading A Narrow Door by Joanne Harris on and wasn’t disappointed, the start is as good, if not better than I was hoping for Big thank you to Joanne Harris, NetGalley and Orion Publishing My Review of A Narrow Door by Joanne Harris
