    The Reluctant Mother by Hemmie Martin | Review (Audio)

    September 24, 2020 /

    The Reluctant Mother.  How many times is this a glaring foghorn in many women’s lives?  This story was a bit of a throwback for me personally.  I didn’t suffer with Post-Partum Psychosis but quite severe PND with my first child.  I was a brand-new mother at the tender age of nineteen and was now faced with the reality of a disabled son.  It was raw and grieving to a point and unfortunately the bonding wasn’t as immediate as I had hoped.  The story is raw and slow – paced but it is everything that it needs to be.  It’s 369 pages of pain and misguided mistakes.  A mother.  The image…

    All About Us by Tom Ellen | Review

    September 16, 2020 /

    All About Us is the kind of story that you would want to read on a rainy day, the raindrops dropping onto a tin roof, hypnotising you and carrying you away into the story.  It’s not typically a genre that I often read but you know what people say about change.  Tom Ellen has created a story that comes straight from the heart – It’s as addictive as chocolate.  I want to shout out loud about how good this magical tale really is.  He has that perfect formula for making a novel stand out in an oversaturated market and makes it more than memorable. We make decisions when we are…

    Dear Edward…Prepare for a cry fest!  It combines everything I love in Contemporary novels, a soul-destroying plot, tug at your heart strings characters and a narrative that has me hugging my loved ones for dear life!  It’s not the first time that I’ve thought of myself as a masochist.  A family relocating.  Multiple lives forever intertwined through disaster.  Loneliness.  A boy left broken.  Element of a plot that in any other dimension would make for a truly devastating effect.  Only Ann Napolitano could take these effects and manage to align the stars. To bring a sense of ease and rightness by the final page.  The originality tears at you.  You…

    Review| My Dark Vanessa By Kate Elizabeth Russell

    June 18, 2020 /

    My Dark Vanessa.   Rumours or truth?  Have you inadvertently helped to spread one?  Just how much truth is it seeped in them? It’s a tale of disturbing manipulation and sexual abuse.  It poses an intriguing narrative on whether home life situations alter our decision making and our ability to see something so inherently dangerous we would speak up.  I wanted to love this book so much more than I did, I love dark tales and this should have been like a shot to the jugular – it just felt like it was stretched out beyond the realms of possibility.  Hide all you want, the truth will always find you. Regardless…
