Nine Uses For An Ex-Boyfriend (Sarra Manning) Review


Hope Delafield hasn’t always had an easy life.
She has red hair and a temper to match, as her mother is constantly reminding her. She can’t wear heels, is terrified of heights and being a primary school teacher isn’t exactly the job she dreamed of doing, especially when her class are stuck on the two times table.


At least Hope has Jack, and Jack is the God of boyfriends. He’s sweet, kind, funny, has a killer smile, a cool job on a fashion magazine and he’s pretty (but in a manly way). Hope knew that Jack was The One ever since their first kiss after the Youth Club Disco and thirteen years later, they’re still totally in love. Totally. They’re even officially pre-engaged. And then Hope catches Jack kissing her best friend Susie…

Does true love forgive and forget? Or does it get mad… and get even?

 was so excited to read this book and I wasn't disappointed I love Sarah Manning's writing style and I love how easy it is to identify with her characters they all seem so normal it is easy to fall in love with them and Hope is no exception.


I found this book took me on an emotional rollercoaster and I cried along with Hope at times. I felt angry at her best friend Susie and her boyfriend Jack for backstabbing her so badly but I also felt sad that her relationships with these two people had been ruined. I enjoyed watching Hope mature and become a strong independent woman a good read for all the ladies out there who love an empowering story of girl power :)
