The City of Dreams

Sooo .. I didn’t think that one of my first blogs would be about a book but I have fallen in love…with New York all over again, after reading I Heart New York by Lindsey Kelk.

 However I did get very embarrassed after laughing out loud on a packed out bus on my morning commute, and then almost missing my stop on the way home because I disappeared in to the book for over an hour completely forgetting I was even on a bus in England! I was convinced I was chasing yellow cabs outside Macy’s. 


Angela is a wannabe writer who has just found out her boyfriend has been cheating on her... and all of her friends knew. So blindly jumps on the first plane out of England and ends up staring out of a hotel window in New York.
 Angela Clark has aspirations and you felt her love for the city shine through, along with her confusion about how she ended up there in the first place. The descriptions of the city made me want to pack up and move there myself. 



Me and my partner often day dream about packing up our little family and moving to the big apple one day. Living like city people, running for their yellow cabs and sitting in coffee shops blogging all day, then watching the fashion parade of New York mums as I pick Lilah Beau up from school. All while Jordans up in Wall Street in a fresh suit earning us some dollar ….. oh day dreams hey! :)
