Reseñas de la Crítica

Claire Daverley’s love stories are heartfelt, full of warmth, and show the everyday intimacies that make a life. (Florence Knapp, bestselling author of THE NAMES)

PEOPLE IN LOVE is magnificent. Claire Daverley is uniquely alert to the texture of a life, both internal and external, and renders it in such detail that one has the pleasure of fully inhabiting her characters. Not only their days—their living rooms and kitchens—but also their families, their memories, and their hearts. Daverley writes with wisdom, kindness, and humour about the glory and pain of love in all its forms. I am particularly admiring of the depth and complexity of her characters and of the beauty she finds in their humanity. (EMMA KNIGHT, author of THE LIFE CYCLE OF THE COMMON OCTOPUS)

People in Love is pure heartache, pure poetry, pure, brilliant moonbeam Claire Daverley. The revelations in this novel glow like opals: fiery, clear, milky, the way life is. I couldn't wait to see what would happen, even though I never wanted it to end. (CATHERINE NEWMAN, NYT bestselling author of SANDWICH)

No one writes love like Claire Daverley. Yearning drips from her books like honey but her stories, although always achingly romantic, are anything but predictable. (LAURA PASHBY)

Daverley is tender and compelling. People in Love is a wistful love story that grapples with the conflict between reality and idealism. (ALICE WINN, author of IN MEMORIAM)

Claire Daverley - queen of tugging at heart strings - has done it again with People In Love. A story full of warmth and tenderness that examines what form true adult love takes and reaches a refreshing conclusion. (ROXY DUNN, author of As Young as This)
