Rumour has it that I am personally no longer ‘in Pursuit of happiness’, I have attained that elusive goal from reading this story. This book gifted me the chance to escape the drudgery of 2020, with its tale of achieving your goals and living your dreams, mixed with generous sprinkles of romance, friendship and family. What’s not to enjoy?

Jo Campbell is a single, wannabe author who launches her first novel in her dreams at the beginning of the book. it seems that she is too nervous to actually send her manuscript anywhere. She seems to feed her publishing dreams by working part time in a bookshop.

Lorcan – initially a visiting sourpuss from Northern England, but soon proves otherwise; he does however seem to be hiding something. Potential for romance? Now that would be telling, and I don’t want to ruin a really great story.

Further romance potential is personified by the stereotypical tall, dark and handsome Ewan, who offers to help Jo with her writing,


Things, unfortunately are not always what they seem, but you will have to read the book for yourself to find out how, and whether or not Jo realises happiness – and I thoroughly recommend that you do just that!

I first fell in love with Freya Kennedy’s writing back in September when I read The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn which introduced me to the wonderful community of Ivy Lane. Although Freya Kennedy’s new novel, In Pursuit of Happiness, can be read as a standalone I would strongly recommend reading The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn first as it introduces you to Ivy Lane, it’s residents, it’s quirks and it’s charm. The characters lives do develop and you can see a lovely progression to their story.

In Pursuit of Happiness focuses on Jo; Jo works with her brother in the pub, she also helps out dear elderly Harry in his corner shop and helps her parents look after her younger sister Clara who was fostered by the family and then later adopted. Jo’s life seems pretty busy but she has a first love that she’s kept to herself and that is writing. Jo has always had aspirations to become a writer and have her books published but she has no confidence in her skill. Since her brother’s girlfriend, Libby, opened up the book shop across the road with purposed writing nooks Jo can be often seen squirrelled away tapping away at her laptop lost in her words. Until one day when a celebrated author visits the bookshop Jo’s life is about to change and she has a whole new emotional ride ahead of her.

There’s a new visitor to the Lane and that is Harry’s grandson, Lorcan. The community have already had pre-conceived ideas about Lorcan and first impressions do not go down too well. However, a friendship blossoms between Jo and Lorcan but the pair soon find out they have more in common than just the love of this dear old man in the corner shop. Both Jo and Lorcan hold a vulnerability within them. Their hearts have previously been broken and the cracks are still evident. Can this new friendship be the key to both of them opening up their hearts and learning to let love in again?

I adore this community in Ivy Lane they are so supportive of each other and you can feel the warmth emanating from the characters. In Pursuit of Happiness will have you feeling cosy and comforted by this story of inspiration and new beginnings. You will fall in love with quite a few characters but one character in particular will melt your heart, have you smiling, laughing and crying with her. I do hope the author will treat us to more stories from this wonderful family of people in Derry. Gorgeously uplifting, feelgood fiction at it’s best.

I really got invested in Jojo's story. Freya managed to convince me that I was a member of Jo's family, supporting her, yelling at her, persuading her to share her written work, convincing her Lorcan wasn't the baddie! Perhaps I could be another foster sister? Oh my, I expected a twist but it wasn't the one we discover!!! I think I'd love to visit Derry now and would love to find a pub like The Ivy! Brilliant storytelling.

It was really nice to return to Ivy Lane and catch up with the characters from the previous book. plus get Jo as a new perspective. What I love about these books is the hope in them. The characters having ambitions and going after them. It's inspiring. Just the light, uplifting read people need after the hard year it's been.

I have been a fan of Freya’s work since I had the good fortune to pick up a copy of her previous book called ‘The Hopes And Dreams Of Libby Quinn’ earlier this year. I couldn’t wait to read Freya’s next book. Well ladies and gents the wait is over because Freya’s new book called ‘In Pursuit Of Happiness’ was released on 15th December 2020. It is another corker of a book and I thoroughly enjoyed every single minute of it but more about that in a bit.
It didn’t take me long at all to get into this story. In fact, as soon as I began to read the first few pages, I knew that I was going to be in for one heck of a read and then some. It took me a couple of minutes after that to feel as though I had reunited with old friends in the shape of Jo Campbell and her friend Libby Quinn. To say that reading ‘In Pursuit Of Happiness’ became seriously addictive is a massive understatement. I would pick the book up only intending to read a couple of chapters but I would become so wrapped up in the story that I read way more than a couple. I loved the characters, I loved where the story was sat and I was keeping everything crossed that Jo would get the ‘happy ever after’ ending that she so deserved. I seemed to race through the story at a rate of knots and before I knew it I had read the last word on the last page.
‘In Pursuit Of Happiness’ is well written but then I thought Freya’s first book was well written too. She certainly knows how to create characters who are impossible to dislike and that you take to your hearts. Freya describes her characters so vividly and realistically that they seem to spring to life and they seem just as real as you and I. This was one of those delightful reads that made me feel all fuzzy and warm inside. I felt as though I was part of the story, which is all thanks to Freya’s very vivid and realistic storytelling. I was gripped by the story from start to finish.
In short, I thoroughly enjoyed reading ‘In Pursuit Of Happiness’ and I would definitely recommend it to other readers. I will certainly be reading more of Freya’s work in the future. The score on the Ginger Book Geek board is a very well deserved 5* out of 5*.

This story follows Jo, a happy 29 year-old who feels as though she is just a little bit stuck in life (aren't we all?!) Jo's biggest dream is life is to be a published author. She has written stories all her life but has never had the confidence to show these to anyone, until Libby gives Jo the not so little push she needs. But will it work out for her? On the other hand, Lorcan has come to town to stay with his Grandad Harry whom owns the shop. Jo already has her preconceived opinions on Lorcan, but is her judgement really correct?

This book was heartwarming, lighthearted, wonderful and just fuzzy all the way through and I enjoyed it so much. The characters were (mostly) lovely and let me tell you: little Clara (Jo's foster sister: just won my heart from the get go. She is such an adorable little girl who has had such a bad start in life but has really found her place in the Campbell household and her relationship with Jo is truly beautiful.

This book highlights the importance of always chasing down your dreams and taking chances to get to where you want to be in life. Find what makes you happy and never give up till you've achieved it.

Thank you so much to NetGalley, Boldwood Books and Freya Kennedy for the ARC in exchange for an honest review!

I was delighted to receive a copy of In Pursuit of Happiness, the sequel to The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn, in exchange for an honest review. I loved Libby, Once Upon a Book and Ivy Lane so it was a real pleasure to be back there to hear Jo's story this time. It was great to catch up with familiar characters and I would recommend you read both books, but don't let that put you off as it is a standalone.
Full of warmth, friendship, love and following dreams even if it means leaving your comfort zone. Freya Kennedy has once again lifted my spirits and given me a few hours of heartwarming relaxation which was just what I needed!

Having read and really loved The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn, it is so exciting to see the character of Libby making an appearance again in this story. In Pursuit of Happiness follows the journey of Jo Campbell. Good friends with Libby and part-owner of The Ivy Inn – the pub she runs alongside her foster brother Noah. Jo has written a book, and although she dreams of being a published author, she doesn’t believe in herself and her abilities to ever fullfill her dream.

Jo realises nothing will change, unless she takes a chance. Showing her story to friend, and bookshop owner, Libby is such a huge step forward for Jo. Without giving too much away, this risk that Jo takes, turns out to be one of the very best decisions she could have ever made.

In Pursuit of Happiness is such a lovely heartwarming story. Through Jo’s eyes, we see how you should never give up on a dream, take chances and risks and find exactly what it is in life that makes you happy. I loved this book and can recommend it to anyone looking for a good and heartwarming story.

What a lovely feel good book. It was nice to lose myself into a heart-warming read and forget about the virus! 

A book based on believing in yourself, friendship, romance,family and moving on from the past. Filled with endearing characters. All of which I really enjoyed getting to know. I also really enjoyed the setting of this book, especially One Upon A book. I need to read The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn. She seems wonderful and I want to know more about her and how she got that amazing book shop with a coffee shop in. What a perfect combination. 

Jo a beautiful soul, who doesn’t believe in herself, even though she should, as she has a lot going for her. Who also happens to loves Mac Russian Red lipstick, just like me. She’s at stage in her life where she needs to put herself out there with the book she’s been writing, it doesn’t come easy for her to chase this dream. Luckily, she had the best friends and family to help give her the push she needed.

Clara her little 6-year-old sister, was a right little darling and such a sweetie. I loved the story line around her too, as sad as it was in places, it added something different to the story. 

I did think what the gorgeous George Clooney look alike Ewan McLachlan had to offer, was a bit out there but when you have a dream you would follow that route and go for it. Oh, how nervous I was for Jo when she met him, I literallycould feel her nerves radiate through the pages. 

I was really interested in the charming Lorcan and wanted to know his story. I felt the connection he shared with Jo and liked how they formed an easy going friendship from the beginning. He had a gentleness about him too, yet was also very honest how he felt about certain things when it came to Ewan.

I really enjoyed Freya’s writing style and found it very peaceful. As much as there was drama, I liked the way it was softly done.

I was welling up as i finished reading it. Just delightful. My heart had completely melted after reading this.

I read this book as part of the blog tour organised by Rachel's Random Resources. Special thanks to Boldwood Books and NetGalley for providing the ARC in exchange for an honest review. 3.5 stars rounded up.

I read my first book by Kennedy earlier this year and really enjoyed the feel-good vibes that her book gave me, so I was eager to come back to Ivy Lane again in Jo's story. This was another heartwarming book about going after what you want and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone to achieve your dreams. There is a bit of romance although it's definitely not the focus, so if you're hoping to get a book full of a romance, this isn't it.

That said, I really enjoyed Jo's story! She's such a relatable character and although I'm a tiny bit older than her, the questions she had about what she's doing with her life really hit home for me. She's been in her comfort zone ever since coming back from living abroad and up until the starting point of this story, has been content there. That's something I think many of us can relate to which makes it easy to put ourselves in Jo's shoes. She had a great arc, and the growth she experiences throughout the book was really strong. Jo starts off as this very insecure woman who doesn't believe in herself or her talent as a writer, but by the end, she fully embraces her passion and acknowledges that she's not just some "wannabe writer", and it was really empowering to see! It helped that Jo had such a wonderful support network in her family and friends, and it was one of my favourite aspects of the book.

We meet several familiar faces including Noah, Libby, Paddy the doggo, and of course, Harry! I loved Harry! He's an institution on Ivy Lane and although he can be such a crochety old man, he's really a sweetheart of a character. I loved his endless moans about youth, technology and "the good coffee"! Two characters that played a bigger role in Jo's story were Clara, her adopted younger sister, and Lorcan, the love interest. Clara was a wee precocious thing and I really enjoyed her relationship with Jo. It was definitely a bit more motherly than a typical sister relationship but with the age gap, it was quite natural. I thought Lorcan was interesting but it was hard to get his measure at the start, and I wished we saw more of him; however, as the romance wasn't a big part of the story, I thought what we learned was good enough to feel something for his character.

The conflict in this book was different than I thought it'd be but I really enjoyed it, and I want to say more but I won't because spoilers! I was able to figure it out before it happened because from the moment this particular ball got rolling, there was something that didn't sit right with me. It didn't lessen my enjoyment of the story though and while I did think it was resolved a little too simplistically, knowing about the scandals and drama that exist on book Twitter, it's actually not totally unbelievable 😂

Overall, this was another fun and easy-to-read story that will give you the warm fuzzy feels and make you appreciate close-knit communities even more. It's an uplifting story about chasing after your dreams and not letting fear of stepping outside of your comfort zone stop you from fully living your life. I realised that I've been reading a fair few books set in Northern Ireland/Ireland this year and it honestly makes me want to visit even more! I guess I'll just go watch Derry Girls for now! 😂

I was surprised to quickly learn that this takes place in the same location as 'The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn' (on my to-be-read pile, not yet tackled). Ivy Lane in Derry, Ireland, is key and Libby appears in this book. However, it is definitely not essential to have read Libby’s story (thank goodness) and, indeed, has wet my appetite to read Kennedy’s other offering.

Jo is quite a weak-minded character. Every decision, or so it feels, takes a very long time for her to reach. There is a lot of pondering, a lot of wondering and even more indecision! I found this quite frustrating and wanted to give her a metaphorical “shake” to wake her up and instil some confidence. Yet, this was equally quite endearing and, although I am a little indecisive, I could recognise Jo’s insecurities – even though this had been taken to the extreme.

I love stories that are set in Ireland and this does not fail to disappoint. Kennedy vividly brings to life the inhabitants of Ivy Lane and I could picture myself walking with Jo, heading to Libby’s bookshop (which I guess is the focus of the other novel). In fact, I wanted to be in a nook in Libby’s bookshop, surrounded by the smell of books with a hot drink and a sweet snack… heaven!

Plot-wise, this is rather gentle and meandering. I quickly found myself wanting Jo to succeed, to remove herself from the emotional rut she was in. When Kennedy reveals more about Jo’s past, I was really relieved: I had been worried this may have been exclusive to Libby’s story. Instead, it made Jo’s personality even more understandable and I think there are many readers out there who will be able to relate to her circumstances.

On the other hand, I did find the plot a little too predictable for my liking. Although there are occasions where I can forgive the obvious element of the story, this time I found it more disappointing. I think this is because I had loved the setting but, with Jo’s insecurities, wanted there to be more surprises and energy in her story.

Kennedy cleverly structures the opening and ending of the novel. I thought these two chapters were the most significant and I loved the cyclical nature of the story. In addition, Kennedy has named all of the chapters after films. I did not recognise all of the films named, but I really enjoyed trying to decode the message of the title, both before and after completing the section. This was a great element and made the story more unique.

This was good little story and a perfect way to chill out and escape. Location: perfect; bookstore presence: brilliant; aspiring writing: could be a little stronger, but likeable all the same. A good follow-up to Libby’s story, I can’t wait to read more about the goings on at Ivy Lane.

With thanks to Boldwood Books, NetGalley and Rachel’s Random Resources for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Charming and hopeful. Freya Kennedy has written a heartwarming story brimming with family, friendship, dreams, and a dog. The story follows up Freya‘s last book Libby Quinn, however it can most definitely be red as a standalone. Jo is stuck in a bit of a rutt. She is happy and safe, but knows she’s not living her best life. Jo has always dreamed of being an author, but doubts her talent. She wants to find love, but is afraid of opening up. then two things happen that shake Jo’s life up. Harry (a beloved village shop owner)‘s grandson Lorcan comes to town. Additionally Libby sends a copy of Jo’s book to a famous author. Will Jo be able to take a chance and embrace change?

This was such a sweet story filled with such lovely characters. I loved revisiting this delightful village with all its quaintness and charm. Jo is a great character and I really liked getting to know her better and wanted her to realize her dreams. it was nice to get reacquainted with characters from the previous book as well as meet new ones. The romance was a true slow burn, and I did like Lorcan as the love interest (even though I’m not sure about his name?). A definite comfort read... the perfect escape.

*** Big thank you to Boldwood Books for my gifted copy of this book. All opinions are my own. ***

Jo lives a simple life in Derry, her brother and her have a successful business, her best friend works there, she has moved back home to support her mother with her younger sister while her dads away. Life in their small town is enjoyable, everyone knows everyone and the heart is the wee cornershop. The owners grandson comes to stay for a while and Jo becomes his tour guide. Jo has some dreams that don't fit with her simple life, can Lorcan help her realise these and make them come true. Can she put behind her past trauma and live the life she has dreamed of?
I really liked this story. I hadn't realised there was a series of books focusing on different characters but it can be read standalone with nothing detracting from the story. I loved all the pop culture references - my only criticism is that Jo didn't ask Lorcan if he was a transponster when he revealed his career haha! One thing I really didn't like was how Clara is treated, everyone tiptoes around her and completely babies her. I get that she had a difficult start in life but I really hated scenes when they were spoiling her because it felt unrealistic. I have friends who have fostered and adopted and they are always on about how you have to treat the child as your own and as normal as possible. The other characters were written well though, believable, relatable and the story was well paced. I will definitely read more by this author in the future.

This is a lovely feel-good story about having the confidence to follow your dreams. Jo is a writer, but she's wary of sharing her work, in case it's not good enough. Her family and friends are supportive, but she has to win an internal battle with herself to be truly happy. The story is set in Derry in Northern Ireland and has an intrinsic authenticity because if the author's knowledge of the people and place.

The family and friends dynamics are believable, and the world created relatably. The romance is conflicted and gentle full of internal and external conflict. The plot is interesting and has an expected twist.
This is the second book in the series, but it's a complete story and an enjoyable, easy read.

I received a copy of this book from Boldwood Books in return for an honest review.

I did not realize this was technically a sequel book, but I had no problem following this as a stand alone novel.

Jo is content with her life, co owning a bar with her brother, temporarily living with her mom and younger sister, and cruising through life not taking any risks. With a push from her best friend/soon to be sister in law, she finally dives into her dream of becoming a published author.

I really adored this book. The characters were all very likeable, especially the shop owner Harry and the little sister Clara. Jo is struggling with that late 20s - early 30s "what the hell am I doing with my life" rut. She's hesitant to take risks and change her life. I thought this book had great representation of what relationships should look like. There was so much love and support and little pushes when needed. This was an inspiring story about pursuing your dreams and believing in yourself.

Thank you Netgalley for a copy in exchange for a review.

After reading The hopes and dreams of Libby Quinn earlier this year and loving it, I couldn’t wait to return to Ivy Lane and see what they are all up to.

This time it’s Jo’s story, Jo has been renting a writing table at Libby’s bookshop every Thursday and dreams of becoming a published author. However she’s too scared to let anyone even look at her writing and she’s become a bit too comfortable in her safe and routine life. What she doesn’t know is after finally showing it to her best friend Libby, she has passed it on to a best selling author!

So in Libby’s book we got a behind the scenes look at how to open a bookshop and in Jo’s we get the angst that goes on in a writer’s head. For anyone who loves anything book related this is an absolute dream.

Jo usually shares a home with Erin the cook but has temporarily moved back in with her mum and young sister Clara while her dad is away working in Dubai. Clara is a whirlwind of a character and the bond they share is enough to melt the frostiest of hearts.

Some familiar faces return, yes Harry I mean you, you are still my favourite and the heart of Ivy Lane, even if it is still in recovery. We also have some new faces and it’s these that will turn Jo’s ordered life upside down.

Just like the previous book this is a delightful read full of characters that feel like family and friends, bringing a real sense of community into your home. It shows that you should be brave and have the courage to chase your dreams. With a heartwarming romance sprinkled alongside some wonderful humour (I expect Peppa Pig at your future book launches) this is an uplifting story that I didn’t want to put down.

I’m really sorry I didn’t manage to read The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn – not because it was in any way essential to my enjoyment of this one, but I think I’d have really liked the story of how Libby set up Once Upon A Book, and I’d certainly have liked to meet the residents of Ivy Lane rather sooner.

The focus of the story this time is Jo Campbell, and she’s written a book – and a book she’s rather proud of, but unless someone intervenes no-one will ever read it. She dreams of being a published author while pulling pints at the Ivy Inn, the bar she runs with foster brother Nathan, but the prospect terrifies her – she’s happy with her simpler life and routine, surrounded by friends and family. But she finally shows her book to Libby – who shares it with the famous author about to host a sold-out event at the bookshop, and he’s particularly impressed by both the story and the quality of Jo’s writing.

Now, this is one of those books where I have an irresistible urge to tell you the story that ensues, but I really don’t want to spoil it for anyone – I’ll just say that it’s a quite wonderful story of following your dreams and taking chances, but with an edge and turn that really took me by surprise, and made me so angry that I wanted to swing for someone every bit as much as Nathan did.

Just to stop me telling you more, let me tell you about some of the characters instead. Jo shares a flat with her friend Erin, the cook at the bar and a real character inclined to turn every small drama into a crisis, but she spends a lot of time with her (quite wonderful) mother and her much loved young foster sister Clara. You might already know about my aversion to children in books, but I have to say that I really loved little Clara – a total princess, secure and loved for the first time in her life – and the relationship between her and Jo, and the way she puts her worries to rest, are pure writing magic.

Then there’s the wider Ivy Lane community, particularly Harry at the shop with his wonderful diatribes about anything and everything (energy drinks, dishwater tablets, kitchen roll, brown bread – none of them stocked for his own good reasons): the community pulled together to keep an eye on him after his heart attack when his family failed to appear, but excitement is high about a long-awaited visit from his grandson Lorcan (who might just make Jo’s life a little more interesting too, if she’s able to forgive him for his absence).

And I’m slipping into telling the story again, and I really mustn’t – I want everyone to experience the same moments of joy, laughter, disappointment, love and anger that made this a book I so enjoyed. The characters are all beautifully drawn (and I really loved Jo – and that always helps, doesn’t it?), the relationships between them are perfectly handled (both family and friends), and the story-telling is of the highest possible quality.

And I haven’t even mentioned the book’s location – it’s set in Derry, has an exceptional sense of place, and there are plenty of opportunities to visit the surrounding area and all its beauty as the story unfolds. The whole book is just wonderfully uplifting, the ending quite perfect, but with plenty of conflict and shenanigans along the way that keep the pages turning – after reading the first few chapters in bed at night (and deciding I really, really liked it) I raced through the rest in a single lovely sitting.

Hopes, dreams, taking chances, finding what makes you happy… I loved this book, really look forward to another opportunity to visit Ivy Lane, and recommend it really highly.

Jo used to work as a holiday rep in Spain but is back in Derry, Northern Ireland and is living her predictable cosy life again with her mum and six -year-old sister.

Libby is her best friend and owns a bookshop with writing nooks and lots of coffee and sweet treats. Having reviewed, and loved, The previous novel The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn, I thought "I recognise that name, it's Libby Quinn!" I felt a warm, tingly feeling inside at having her featured in a book again. I can remember I asked the publisher for a sequel during an Instagram Live event and I am so happy she's back.

She is a memorable character and I have never forgotten her story which I reviewed earlier this year. She did well for herself with the creation of her bookshop and so I was intrigued to find out Jo's story.

Jo seemed more vulnerable in a way than Libby and I felt for her. I think the way Freya Kennedy showed this difference in the characters' personalities was a great contrast and it was important even though this book focuses on Jo as a main character as I felt I knew them both better.

Being Jo's best friend, Libby wants to lend a hand once in awhile. Jo is writing a book and the manuscript is sat there. She's scared of rejection and her family is kindly supportive of her work. She wants more constructive, challenging criticism, but is not sure she can take the result. What will happen when Libby submits the manuscript?

I identified with her as I felt the same when I was working on my first book. but fortunately I have learned to take the rough with the smooth and I accept what people feel. I loved this plotline, I felt like I wanted to know if Jo would succeed and get published. It was very original.

The twists and turns of the plot and the fun cast of characters made In Persuit of Happiness another unforgettable novel by Freya Kennedy.

I recommend both The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn and In Persuit of Happiness. They are good together and as standalone novels.

Thanks to Freya Kennedy, Rachel's Random Resources and Boldwood Books for my ARC in exchange for an honest and voluntary review.

5 stars.

I have to admit that light-hearted chick-lit type reads aren't usually my go-to when it comes to something new to read. I happen to love books by Freya Kennedy's alter ego Claire Allan which are a bit more my line, being thrillers. Even so, seeing as I do enjoy her writing, I thought I'd give this one a go when I spotted it on NetGalley. I have to admit that I'm glad that I did.
This book tells the story of Jo and her attempts to sort out what she actually wants out of life. Since getting her heart broken while living and working in Spain, she's been taking the easy route. Not pushing herself to chase her dreams and letting life just unfold around her, rather than trying to chase her dreams.
I enjoyed this story. Jo and the other characters in her life were really enjoyable. There's a great humorous streak that runs through the book, particularly from cantankerous old Harry who runs the local shop. He has some wonderful ideas about life and what he should or shouldn't stock that had me giggling to myself.
This was an enjoyable and entertaining read and I'm really glad that I gave it a go. It seems that there is a previous book that features many of the same characters The Hopes and Dreams of Libby Quinn. In Pursuit of Happiness works fine as a standalone, but I think I might go back and give it a go all the same. I'll certainly be on the lookout for any future novels from this author.
I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

First I want to thank Netgalley for this ARC.
This was a sweet book about never giving up.
I really loved the main characters.
This book is perfect for this present.
When we are all losing hope...
