Blackberry Wine

A really good novel, probably my favourite of all Joannes books.  The only things I disliked about it was the insistence on sticking with the “clever idea” she has at the start of the book of describing things from the perspective of one of the ‘special’ bottles of wine.  Whilst it seems clever at the start I found that the story was so strong without it that in the end it detracted from the main themes of the book.
