Clover is looking for answers. She is searching for them in her mother's belongings, a collection of things that she hopes will tell the full story of her mother, her father, and who she is going to be.

From Carys Bray, the award-winning author of A Song for Issy Bradley, comes a tender yet funny tale of love and loss. The Museum of You will surprise, make you cry but also delight.

This looks like a really good read - I haven't had a chance to get a copy yet but it's on my list to borrow from the library.

Perfect read on a nice sunny day or two in the garden.

I hadn't heard of the author before but thought i would give it a go and downloaded it on my kindle. It is beautifully written by a talented author. It shows true emotion and the powers and strengths between father and daughter, a lovely heart warming novel.

Thank you mum sent for my free copy. I had not come across this author prior to receiving the book. I found the book excellent-it is probably the best book I have read in the last year, and certainly the best fictional work I have read for a long time which deals with the theme of grief and coping following a bereavement-the style of writing is engaging, humorous, sensitive and so authentic. The characters are beautifully portrayed. I look forward to reading more work by this author.
