The smoke jumper, by Nicholas Evans

The smoke jumper, by Nicholas Evans Years ago, I've read "The horse whisperer" by the same author. I think I read it in one go. Then I lent it to my mother, and she did just the same, not talking to me for a day or two. Then came my brother, and the story repeated itself.

So when I spotted this book in the library I knew I had to borrow it. And I really quite liked it! First of all, I learned about smoke jumpers, which I didn't know existed. Then the story takes you in and it becomes increasingly hard to put the book down. Nothing revolutionary, but a fantastic reading, which made me laugh and cry (man, that letter !!!). Perfect escape from your everyday life :)
