Elizabeth Jane Howard Reviews

3.5
“This was not the read I was expecting. Much of the focus was on the affairs Elizabeth Jane Howard had and I felt it didn't portray her as a particularly nice person. Can't say it made me want to read her books either as from what was said about them, they appear to be reflections of her own life.”
“3.5 stars Well research fascinating autobiography of EJh and great reading for all fans but ! The big but not sure why it was written when Ejh’s own memoir slipstream is so highly rated amongst fellow novelists and readers alike, parts of the autobiography were “clunky” but it was a bargain find for me from book barn second hand book shop , so now onto slipstream and Ejh’s whole back Catalogue.”
“Elizabeth Jane Howard had an amazing life!”
