Finding a good book is always a difficult task for me, there are just so many books to choose from it’s hard to pick just one to read.

After such a long time I am getting back into reading, and I wanted to read a really good book, so while looking around judging all the covers, I came across this book by Cathy Hopkins. 

The author sounded familiar, and I remembered reading some of her books when I was in high school. I was pretty excited to get this book hoping that it would be a good read.

"Unlucky in love Jo is dragged along to see a clairvoyant by her two coupled-up best friends, and is told that there's only one boy for her. The trouble is, the last time she saw him was in a past life, when she worked as a governess to his younger brother. The clairvoyant tells her that as she is back in this life, so is he, and she must find him if she is ever to know true happiness and love. Jo doesn't believe a word of it - but then a series of events begin to change her mind. Could her one true love really be out there? In her quest to find the One, she visits psychics and cemeteries - but will she even be able to recognize her soul-mate when she finds him? Or is she destined to continue looking for love for all of time?" 

The story is all about how Jo and her two best friends, go around trying to figure out whose Jo’s lover was in the past and who he is now. 

This book is a quick and easy read and can be finished in a couple of hours. It was a good book, but when you get into the story you can kind of guess what is going to happen, and so there isn't any big twists in the story.

I wouldn't pick this book again to read, only because this book is aimed at younger readers.
