26/4/2018 0 Comments Review: The Man Who Didn't Call
My Review: 1) Stop what you are doing.
2) Book a weekend away in a remote cottage with a comfortable armchair. 3) Read this book. An absolutely brilliant book. From the moment Sarah and Eddie met I was vying for them to end up together, but every twist and turn assured me it was impossible. I read the last quarter of the book in one sitting on a long bus journey and I have to admit that I started to sob a few chapters from the end. At least the other passengers were polite enough to ignore my tears. It was the literary equivalent of spending the evening wrapped in a duvet, with a tub of Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey ice cream, and binge-watching a favourite box set. VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Many thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me a complimentary copy of The Man Who Didn't Call in exchange for my honest review.

My Review:I loved the Rosie Project, so when I heard Graeme Simsion with his wife Anne Buist (his very own Rosie?) had written a book together I couldn’t wait to read it.
The two storytellers intertwined beautifully with the point of view changing at the beginning of each chapter. And by chapter seven I was searching the Internet for 90-day Camino pilgrimages. It was hard to put down and I found myself forgoing evening television to continue my journey with Zoe and Martin. It was a delightful book to read. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Many thanks to Two Roads and NetGalley for providing me a complimentary copy of Two Steps Forward in exchange for my honest review. 8/3/2018 0 Comments Review: The Love Factory
My Review:The Love Factory is a beautiful book. I loved the pace and the build. I felt for Anna (the protagonist) and her circumstances, how the family was placed amongst its setting, and her relationships with her friends. I was rooting for her the whole time. Cordelia was a solid spunky addition to the story. The stories within the story all worked beautifully. You always wanted more from the episodes of the story stories from the Love Factory as did the fictitious customers.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Many thanks to Quercus and NetGalley for providing me a complimentary copy of The Love Factory in exchange for my honest review. |
