review 1: Oh how I loved this book. It is one of those books you can't put down, but at the same time you don't want to ever finish it. The mystery was intriguing and I loved all the characters. The only part that I didn't like about the book was my devastation when one of my favorite char...

review 1: This book gets a firm 5 stars from me! I just loved the different view points from different family members as they each delve back into the past. As for Lorelei and her hoarding? As I tend to be more of a neat freak, I wanted to virtually go into the story and ring her neck. ...

review 1: I was slightly unnerved to find that this was a sequel to Ralph's party which I haven't read, but I was surprised to find the story wasn't hard to grasp at all, it was really easy to get into and easy to read. The story was both heart-warming and heart-wrenching at the same time,...

review 1: Another Lisa Jewell book that I devoured pretty much in one sitting. First and foremost, she's a fab story-teller with a real knack of making you want to keep turning the pages, and this story was no exception. It's a really interesting concept, and not a subject matter I've read...

review 1: This has been at the back of a shelf on my 'TBR' pile for that long now that guilt has finally made me read it. I'm glad I did as it was a nice change. It's an easy sort of read that meanders along, slightly predictable and a bit undramatic but quite satisfying. I liked the fact ...

review 1: This book is purely amazing. It presents the life of Melody Browne after she starts to discover the secrets of her childhood. I like the parallel action in the present and past. When I started to read this book, I was confused by a lot of things, but as I read further, the jigsaw...

review 1: I picked this book up randomly when I was browsing the library stacks and it looked interesting and like a book I would enjoy. Jojo Moyes had written a short review on the back of the book which also caught my eye because I love her as an author. This book was pretty good and I...
