You always know what you are getting with Shari Lows novels, and this one did not disappoint. I enjoyed the dual timeline between present day and 1990s Hong Kong. The characters are rich, funny, and well developed. A great novel to enjoy by the pool.

Once again Shari Low has written a book that captivated and kept me reading all night. This is a story of friendship, family, secrets, and second chances. Three women meet and share a wild year in Hong Kong living their best lives. When they each go their separate ways, life gets in the way and they don't meet up again for 35 years. The week long reunion in Hong Kong brings revelations, some sadness, new friendships, and renewed friendships.
Absolutely loved this story, the characters were all unique and well developed, the plot while a duel time line, flowed smoothly. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great, feel good story.
I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Superb novel and one that kept me turning the pages long into the night wanting to find out what would happen. In 1990 three young performers in their early 20’s are in Hong Kong living their best lives and loving their jobs. Moira , Lisa and Carina are all very different but enjoy life together and making the most of every day. Fast forward to present day and Moira, now a retired singer is looking to meet up with her friends and invites them to meet up again in their old stomping ground, however despite not seeing each other for many years they all are set to go.
The story is one of many life changing events which revolve around the characters and their friends and family. As with the author’s other fabulous books there are some old faces that make a return appearance and we are able to delve further into their lives. The sights and sounds of Hong Kong are brilliantly described and the meeting up of three women there tells the story of how life has changed them and their families and helps them become friends again in different ways.
Many tissues are needed for this and a good amount of time before starting another book as I will be thinking about this one for some time to come. Highly recommended.
Thanks to Netgalley, the publisher and the author for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

LOVE THIS BOOK! We’ve met Ollie in a previous book and his mum Moira has been mentioned. This is the story of Moira returning to Hong Kong to revisit her youth…and she’s invited Carina and Lisa who she spent those wild times to come along for a reunion. Carina arrives but Lisa doesn’t….instead her daughter Stevie turns up and she has questions she’s ready love to know the answer to. This book was yet again brilliant and a thoroughly enjoyable read.

The story starts with a dual time zone.
1990
Hong Kong where 3 young ladies Moira, Carina & Lisa are professional singers singing in hotels most evenings living their best life and partying hard and seeing the sights.
2025
Glasgow,UK
Moira has decided to retire from her singing career after a great career spanning across cruise ships and local pubs. After 30 long years Moira decides it’s time to do something she has wanted to do for a long time and have an adventure, head back to Hong Kong where it all began. Will Carina & Lisa accompany her on this grand adventure back in time or will she go alone?
After an unfortunate accident, Lisa’s daughter Stevie goes on the adventure to Hong Kong to find out where it all began all those years ago, to see the sights and follow her mums footsteps - but after all this times secrets may resurface and cause more questions than answers….

Thank you to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for my copy of One More Day of Us by Shari Low.
Absolutely brilliant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Moira, Lisa and Carina had an amazing time in Hong Kong 1990
Now in 2025 Moira is going back and invites Corina and Lisa to meet her there.
What a story they have to tell.
You will laugh, you will cry. You will love it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

What a beautiful story. Another fantastic read from Shari Low, Moira met Carina and Lisa when they worked as singers in Hong Kong living the dream and partying hard, when Moira decides to go back to Glasgow they all go there separate ways and don't see each other again but thirty years later Moira sends them an invitation to join her for a week to go back to where they met but can they rekindle their ,friendships. A story of love,loss and so much more heartbreakingly beautiful and well written with warmth and charm,fabulous characters who you couldn't help but fall in love with. A worthy 5🌟read

I love this author! I can always be guaranteed of an absolute page turner every time I pick up a book by her! In this book, we find ourselves in a dual timeline story, switching back and forth between the 1990's and present day. In the 90's, Moira, Carina and Lisa are singers in Hong Kong. They are living the dream in a job they love. In the present day, the young women are 30 years older and have lost touch, but when Moira heads to Hong Kong to celebrate her retirement she invites her old friends to join her and relive some memories from their time there together.
This was such a wonderful read! I love how this author writes her stories, you know there are going to be so many likeable characters, a gripping storyline, life lessons learnt and a secret that will inevitably be revealed before the end of the book! I loved Moira, Carina and Lisa's characters in the 90's. They behaved exactly how you would expect 3 young women abroad to behave!! The Hong Kong scene sounded great, and I could just picture the nightclub with the clubs and the bars that they performed in as I read! In both parts of the story, we were also treated to some amazing descriptions of Hong Kong's scenery and I really wished I could have seen it for myself! Their storylines, in both times, are so well written. I felt like I knew the characters right from the very beginning and settled into their stories very quickly. I also felt all their ups and downs with them, and shared their tears and laughter. The characters were all so likeable, and I could feel myself rooting for each of them to do what was right for them.
The storyline flowed so well, and I honestly couldn't put it down once I'd started it. It is an emotional read, but there was also some fun moments which lightened the mood. These were definitely the kind of women you would want as best friends and I really hope to see more of them! It's a heart-warming story of friendships, life and self-discovery! Would definitely recommend!

This is the Shari Low book i have read and I enjoyed it so much that I downloaded more books. I enjoyed the way the story followed the 3 main characters through a specific period in their lives and how retracing their steps brings a new and deeper understanding of each other. I would highly recommend this novel.

I was so excited when I seen Shari Low had a new book coming out! I just love her books and this was another cracking read.
The story goes between 1990 and the present day when 3 girls meet in Hong Kong for the first time. Miora, Crina and Lisa. They promised to meet up 30 odd years later. A fantastic read where Shari can transport you to Hong Kong.

Really good book that i will recommend to others.
Thanks for the opportunity to read & review it.

Love this author! So gripping and so beautiful . Had to stay up very late to finish it - I inhaled it
I can't wait for this to come out and for y'all to lose your minds. if you had doubts about preordering, don't. you're going to want to read this one. I raced through it this weekend. Such a smart idea.

I received a free copy of, One More Day of Us, by Shari Low, , from the publisher and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Moira, Carina, and Lisa used to sing together, until Moira wanted a solo career. Over 30 years have passed and Moira is ready to retire, and plans a trip to Hong Kong. This was a good read about friendship, travel, jobs, and love.

No words can describe how much I love reading a book by Shari Low. Genuinely like sitting down after a day on your feet and wrapping yourself in a warm blanket. This book focused on Moira and her life ‘back in the day’ and it was so fascinating to learn about Hong Kong. I wish I had friends like this bunch! Go and get this book asap and enjoy the warm fuzzy feelings while you’re reading it.

An excellent read for any and all readers! Author comes at you with both barrels and knocks you out of your shoes! Great job fleshing out all the characters. I give this book FIVE stars! Definitely recommend!

Another absolutely brilliant book by Shari Low. The characters are all relatable, the story is funny, sad, has a hint of romance. This book is mostly set in Hong Kong and it is described so well you would think you were part of the holiday!
2 old friends meet up in Hong Kong along with the daughter of the 3rd friend of the original girl group. The holiday is organised by Moira a brilliant lady originally from Glasgow with a colourful past and a zest for life. She says things as they are and has a wicked sense of humour, her one liners had me laughing out loud!
I could not put this book down and did not want the story to end, the 3 main women in this book are exactly the type of women that I want to be my friends and go on a journey of self discovery, reliving wonderful old memories, making happy new memories and lasting friendships. I can only hope we hear more about these 3 women in future books.
Read this, you will not be disappointed.

I have never read anything by Shari Low before and was excited to give One More Day of Us a try. I really enjoyed the book and I plan on reading more by the author. This is a story written about three friends in the past and present. I enjoyed that it went back and forth between their current lives and their younger lives. I loved the setting in Hong Kong and the characters were well developed.The ending was slightly predictable but there were some twists and turns as well. Overall I really enjoyed it and was glad to have read it.

I just LOVE this authors books…
This time we travel between 1990 and 2025 and meet ( or re meet as some characters are known to us ) Moiira,Carina and Lisa and basically see how their reunion in Hong Kong goes,will all 3 turn up? Will they still have that bond forged within the best time of their lives,will it be everything they want
It’s funny,sad ( one part especially so ),emotive,romantic but all with the main thread being about friendship,women’s friendship and what it means to them
There are many mini stories within the main story that all, as only this author can do, come together within a time frame and all work together to get to the end result for everyone in the book
Hong Kong is described tantalisingly in every way and you could smell the food,hear the wonderful chaos and feel the humidity as well as experience the hotels and bars
Again I have to say I LOVE this authors work,it’s reassuringly reader focused and guarantees a wonderful experience every time for everyone in and out of the book

1990 - Moira, Lisa and Carina are singers in Hong Kong, entertaining in hotels. 2025 Moira decides to go back to Hong Kong for the first time, and writes to Lisa and Carina to meet them, having not seen them in the 35 years in between. Will they respond to Moira, and will they be able to pick up the friendship that they left behind?
A story of tragedy, friendship, youth, love and found family. It is a beautifully written book, that made me laugh and cry. The characters are perfectly formed and their relationships are wonderful. Shari Low has turned into a must read author for me, and this is another fabulous book.

Oh wow! A book I devoured and loved right the way through. Way back in the day, thirty years ago, three women met up in Hong Kong when they were working as entertainers at a hotel. Moira is now working at her stage school and has a son who is a famous actor. Carina is married to a wealthy businessman but when she finds out he has been having an affair she takes up Moira’s invitation to go to Hong Kong rather than celebrate her anniversary. When the two ladies get there, they look forward to meeting up with Lisa and catching up on the last thirty years of their lives. Occasional chapters take us back in time to glimpse of their lives. Can they rekindle the friendships or has too much changed, and the secrets they held back then remain intact?
This is a wonderful premise and as with all of Shari’s books the characters are wonderful and almost step out of the pages. The ladies are a mix of good hearted, caring and fun loving whilst now having that life experience that makes them see their old lives in a completely different light whilst still having that sense of fun. It’s of love and loss, friendship and heartache, the ups and downs of life we all go through one way and another. A treasure of a read, one fabulous book.
