As the title of Rosy Thorntons debut would suggest, More Than Love Letters consists of letters, emails, newspaper articles, minutes of meetings, and more. I love Meg Cabots epistolary novels - including
Boy Meets Girl - but could More Than Love Letters match up?
In a word, yes. Margaret Hayton is a primary school teacher saddled with what she thinks is an old persons name. Her name helps her local MP, Richard Slater, assume shes an interfering old biddy who feels compelled to write to him about everything from dog muck in the local park to VAT on sanitary protection to the EU Emissions Trading Directive. Once Richard realises that Margarets actually young - and gorgeous - he becomes more interested in both her and her causes.
