Thank you so, so much to Tracy Fenton from THE Book Club and Compulsive Readers, and to Trapeze Books... Continue Reading →
With the abundance of Holocaust literature that floods the market today, one can be forgiven to feeling slightly de-sensitised to the horrors that are presented to us in each offering. But every now and then a piece of work comes along to shake us up out of our sensory overload. A book that reminds us... Continue Reading →
Jayne Sinclair is a genealogical investigator. She basically traces lost relatives. However, she herself seems somewhat lost.

I’m so thrilled and honoured to be here on the blog tour for this truly wonderful book! I believe this is going to be one of the bestsellers of the year and is going to be spoken about for a long time to come. Before the story even begins, it’s prefaced by an introduction from... Continue Reading →

The plot sounded so promising, but ended up being boring and dragged out with characters who were so unlikeable I hardly cared what happened to them by the time I skimmed my way to the end. To use a phrase coined by someone I once knew: "one, two, skip a few ..." So... Continue Reading →

Utterly riveting! I couldn’t put this one down. 15-year-old Ellie Mack disappears without a trace one day. She’s the centre of her mom Laurel’s world, and her family can’t believe that this beautiful, young ‘golden’ girl (as she’s described) would leave home of her own accord as the police would have them think. But there’s... Continue Reading →
