Wish You Were Here and Tell Me Your Secret

Just finished these two books. The first one is by Mike Gayle "Wish you Were Here". This is similar to a Chick lit but from the male perspective. I really enjoyed this book and finished it in two days. It is about a guy in a thirties whose girlfriend dumps him after 10 years and his other two mates decide that they will bring him off on a holiday to Greece for a week. It does not take him long to get over the love of his life and it is fun all the way. After been on an 18-30's holiday when they were 18 they decide to go on another one and once there, decide again that it is about time they actually grew up.

The second book is by Deirdre Purcell "Tell me Your Secret". Nicely written but a little far-fetched. A girl falls in love in the 1940's Ireland and her parents lock her up for 35 years in an attic, she has a baby and they just take it away to be adopted. Can you imagine.
