Lil's Bus Trip by Judy Leigh Women’s fiction-

Sprightly eight two year old Lil is off on an adventure. She is going with a

group of locals to northern Europe. She has roped in her daughter Cassie

and good friend Maggie who very much needs to get away from her

husband Brian who just sits in front of the TV letting her do everything.

She almost bottled out thinking he couldn't manage without her. Lil is a

character and couldn't let her friend not come. Many many years ago,

Lil’s love was Cassie's father who then had to return home to the

states following the war. Lil was left wondering what happened to him

and hasn't really had a man in her life ever since. The group set out

and visit war memorials, cemeteries along with cider makers and

everything else along the way.

I love Judy’s novels- there is a depth of message amongst so much

going on and many smiles. From ghosts and flirting to storytelling,

there is the warmth of a group who although very different have

some common bonds. Of life and loves, ups and downs and the

gamut of emotions we all go through. A wonderful, inspirational read.

Lil's Bus Trip It’s always a good time for a road trip… When 82-year-old Lil decides to book herself, her 65-year-old daughter, Cassie, and her friend Maggie on a bus trip across Europe, she hopes for a little adventure to counteract the monotony of life in sheltered accommodation. Along with three members of the Salterley Tennis Club and the Jolly Weaver five-a side football team, whose ideas of a good time are rather different to Lil’s and strikingly at odds with each other’s, the merry band of travelers set out on their great adventure. From moving moments on the beaches of Normandy, outrageous adventures in Amsterdam, to the beauty of Bruges and gastronomic delights of France, the holiday is just the tonic Lil, Maggie and Cassie needed. And as the time approaches for them to head home, Lil makes an unexpected discovery - even in her advancing years, men are like buses – there isn’t one for ages then two come along at once. Is Lil ready to share her golden years, and can the ladies embrace the fresh starts that the trip has given them. Or is it just too late to change… Purchase Link - https://amzn.to/3wV7Kr4
