Has anyone read "Our Song" by Dani Atkins? Here is a description:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Our-Song-Dan.../dp/1471142248 I had read it was "for fans of "Me Before You" so I got sucked in and ordered it from an Amazon seller. I just started Amy Hatvany's new book "Somewhere Out There" and got sucked in right away. For the music geeks-I just started the book "Every Anxious Wave" by Mo Daviau. I am not at all into science fiction, but the book description interested me. It is about a bar owner who finds a wormhole in his apartment that he is using to travel back in time to various concerts he either saw and loved, or wished he had seen. I am used to Jodi Picoult putting out books this time of year. For years, I would always order her newest book for myself for my birthday (end of February) She used to always release a new book the first week of March. She has switched to October releases. The book due out later this year is called "Small Great Things" and it is coming out on 10/11/16. There is a description here: http://www.jodipicoult.com/small-great-things.html#more I recently finished "Domestic Secrets" by Rosalind Noonan which was good , but I did not enjoy it as much as her other books. I also just finished "So Far Away" by Meg Mitchell Moore. The story was very well done, but the end was not satisfying. I wanted to know more about what happened to the characters. I think I liked the author's book "Admissions" more than this one. Sherry

Years ago, I loved an old English show called 'Nanny' with Wendy Craig. (Nothing like the more modern, American show of the same name.)
It doesn't seem to be available on dvd in the US, but I managed to find a novel with the same basic plot that refers to itself as "Wendy Craig's 'Nanny' " . IIRC, the series got off to a slightly different start than the book does, but the basic idea is that a divorcee in 1929 England begins life as a nanny. So far, an absorbing read. Definitely glad I managed to stumble across this.
