Book News: Nine Uses For An Ex-Boyfriend by Sarra Manning

Sarra Manning is back next month with her brand new novel Nine Uses For An Ex-Boyfriend. I have to say I absolutely love the cover, I think it's really striking and certainly will stand out in bookshops! I think the plot sounds really good as well, I can't wait to find out what these 'nine uses' are going to be! It's out on 2nd February 2012, and here's the synopsis:

"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? "
