Thanks so much for the opportunity to try this book. I've not read any of the other books by this author, so am looking forward to trying one. I'm only a few chapters in so far and am really enjoying it. Carys has a really engaging writing style and the storyline is keeping me interested. Really hoping to get some more read this weekend.

Amazing story, a lot of the points in the book I could relate too!

Really enjoyed reading it - this is not my normal type of book but I surprised mself when reading it that i was actually really enjoying it.

Enjoyed the story a lot

Really great read X

we haven't started reading it yet

looking forward to reading this book!!!

this is perfect for beach reading. light hearted and warm

A friend has just lent this to me for my holiday, I sneaked a quick read of the first chapter and then hid it away. So far, just brilliant, I am hooked. Cant wait for the plane now

Insightful, thoughtful, prods your brain
Makes you cry then laugh again
Pages of chuckles and pages of tears
Make a best-seller down through the years

Thank you so much for this. It's quite different from my usual reading choice, which is a good thing, I need to try different styles and genres. I haven't got very far yet, but so far it is interesting..

Not the typical kind of book that I'd read but I really enjoyed it.

Just started reading this and cant put it down !

This was quite a quick read but on the whole quite enjoyable.

About a third of the way through. Really enjoying the book, really descriptive and lovely storyline.

Sounds like another to add to my list of books to read.

Charming lovely book

Enjoyed this book and would recommend!

really enjoyable read covering lots of different topics. Really liked the stye of writing too was so easy to read

I thoroughly enjoyed this and thought it was incredibly well written, capturing the voice of a 12 year old perfectly. This was a real page turner and kept me hooked right up until the end. Relationships were well crafted and there was some real humour with particular characters. Great read and highly recommended.

What a beautiful story, so tenderly written. I really enjoyed it. The characters developed as the pages turned and although sad in places it ended quite positively. I couldn't put the book down and thought about the story long after I had finished it. A great book to get lost in a forget about the real world.

I received this book to review. I have not read any previous titles by this author.
I started to read this book and was immediately swamped by the minute detail. I found it quite hard to find the rhythm to the words for the first few chapters but perseverance pays off as something clicked and I was in the story after that. I found the story to be a bit disjointed 'too many cooks' for all the information about the characters was drip fed throughout, with no pattern or insight. I was slightly disappointed with the ending, it seemed very unfinished, all the characters had back stories and none were in anyway concuded. In my opinion of course. I wish everyone well in their enjoyment of this story, it seems it did not agree with myself.

This is a touching story about grief and the various ways of dealing with it. It is well written, very descriptive however I just did not connect with it or the characters.

very good book worth a read x

Thoroughly good read wonderful characterisation and sensitive handling of the issues. Well,paced with humour threaded through the narrative. Really enjoyed it.
