This was the first book by Dorothy Koomson I had read and I loved it! I actually enjoyed feeding in the middle of the night so I could continue reading it. I thought it was very unpredictable and I couldn't wait to find out what happened next. It was very well written but also easy to read. It touched on subjects I have little knowledge of and I found it a real incite into these issues. I would now like to read another of her books.

I love Dorothy Koomson books but I am struggling with this one. I will persevere but I am not finding it as gripping as the other books written by her which I have read.

Finally finished 3 months after I started the book and although it wasn't terrible, in my opinion it isn't one of Dorothy Koomson's best novels.

Beautiful!
This book is so well written and was such a joy to read, once started, I couldn't put it down!
The characters are realistic and well crafted. The storyline crosses so many taboos and barriers in such a fabulous way - adoption, race, emotion, death, euthanasia, so many and in such a frank and honest way.
I truly recommend this book to all - you will enjoy it!
