cassie_w 's review for:
Needlemouse
by Jane O'Connor
Sylvia is a 52 year old single woman who is just vile.
There is seriously not a single redeeming quality about her.
She works in a university as a personal assistant to a Professor who she believes herself to be in love with. He of course, she is sure, feels the same way and now that he's finally getting a divorce, surly it's just a matter of time before he realises this.
To give herself something to talk about, and because she wants people to think that she's nicer than she actually is, she volunteers at a hedgehog sanctuary and it is in these parts of the book that I learned so much about Hedgehogs.
There are some fantastic supporting characters in this book and even though Sylvia is horrid, watching her live fall apart because of her own selfish decisions, was quite hard. Even though, on one hand, Sylvia deserved everything she got, no-body would wish such things on their worse enemy . . .
An enjoyable book that kept me hooked and reading until way past my bedtime.
