Just One More Day by Shari Low

I’ve read several of Shari Low’s books, and when Boldwood Books sent me the blurb for this one, I was instantly excited — and it absolutely didn’t disappoint. Her stories always feature different characters, yet they feel so real, relatable, and cleverly drawn, flaws and all. This was a quick, easy, and fun read, exactly the kind of story you can sink into and enjoy in a single sitting.

Marge Drummond is dying, and she’s carrying a huge secret she longs to share with her daughter, Estelle — but the longer she’s put it off, the harder it has become to tell the truth. She turns to her friend Bernadette for help, hoping she can guide her through the confession she’s dreaded for years. Meanwhile, Amber Collins, once Estelle’s closest friend before a painful falling‑out, finds herself at the hospital at the very same time by sheer coincidence. Secrets and lies bind these three women — and several others — together, leading them towards a gripping and emotional conclusion.

This was an engaging, emotional story that drew me in from the very first chapter. Shari Low weaves together secrets, regrets, and long‑buried truths with her trademark blend of humour and heart, creating characters who feel wonderfully real even at their most flawed. By the end, I was completely invested in Marge, Estelle, Amber, and the tangled web that connects them, and I turned the last page feeling both moved and uplifted. It’s another memorable read from an author who never disappoints.
