What can I say ...

It almost hits too close to home, this novel by Margaret Atwood. It’s a tale like too many, too many women live almost exactly like this. I look forward to reading more.

If you want to write, read this first!

Writing is a task in and of itself. Knowledge is the only thing that can make writing better. If you read this novel-no matter where you are in the process-it will absolutely help make your novel better than you can imagine!

Words aren’t enough

Sometimes a story comes into your life when you needed it but didn’t know that you needed it until you’ve finished it.
This is one of those stories.
Heart wrenching, tear jerking, but something everyone needs to read.

As soon as I picked it up, I couldn't put it down! I've never in my life read a book cover to cover without putting it down. Well, I had never in my life. I can not wait to read the next book in this series from Dan Wells, in fact it's on my table, I'll start reading first thing tomorrow! (Because sadly, sleep is a necessary part of life)

Honestly I picked this book up as a mistake. I was looking for “Promising Young Woman” (from the recent film that came out.)
But I have to say I was pleasantly surprised and once I started I couldn’t put the book down.
The author I would like to congratulate on such wonderful work.
The editing team as well, did a fantastic job.
I found no errors in this book. Errors often catch my eye and distract me from the story, but if there were errors, I didn’t see them!
Truly, truly, thank you to Caroline O’Donoghue for writing this novel.
Thank you to everyone who made it happen. I know there are teams behind books that help them see the light of day, and I am thankful for all of them.
Without spoilers I can’t say all I’d like to, but I truly enjoyed this novel. The perils that Jane faces are so true.
Just stunning work!
