review 1: "Charlie and Pearl" by Tammy RobinsonA well-observed and often very touching exploration of the love between two people. I don't want to add any spoilers, so this review is a bit briefer than I might otherwise have posted. The text could do with occasional edits, but this is a sweet, mature and thought-provoking story which steers away from easy answers. Thank you, Tammy!

review 2: What a heart wrenching story. It had some heart-warming moments, some comedic moments, and some moments that make you think. But overall, this was a heart breaking tearjerker. Robinson spends a great deal of time setting up the scene. Everything is laid out in a very clear and concise manner. It flows like real life. The st
... moreory itself is also very solidly put together. There weren’t any holes or confusing spots in the storyline. Don’t get me wrong. There were times where you were caught up in the mystery of a new romance, right along with the characters, but it adds to the truthfulness of the story itself. Robinson’s story is not only solid, but well built around a very tough subject that is an everyday reality for all too many people. This is one of those stories that makes you stop and think about your life, and how you would handle a similar situation.Throughout her novel the author switches perspectives between the 2 characters. This is a technique that is becoming more and more common in the literary world. Robinson, however, gives it a bit of a twist. She switches on pretty much a page by page basis. The story is told in the first person, but more than that, it is told through the thoughts of the two main characters. This allows you a huge insight into the main characters and into their actions and reactions. It also gives you greater insight into their relationship with one another. And this relationship is another thing I really liked about the novel. It was a real relationship with real quirks. I got a bit stuck on the ending. I get it. I fully understand where it’s coming from. It wraps up the story perfectly. It’s actually the only ending I can imagine, but yet, I still don’t know what I think about it.Please note that I received this novel free of charge from the author in exchange for an honest review. less
