Book Review – The Girl in the Corner by Amanda Prowse #BookBlogger #AmReading
This book made me think. I have been the girl in the corner my whole life, less-confident, insecure, fearful. The story kept me awake practically the whole night; deeper introspection has led to the conclusion that I am probably coming into my own trying to do new things, but there are still some things I … Continue reading Book Review – The Girl in the Corner by Amanda Prowse #BookBlogger #AmReading
Book Review – The Christmas Wish by Tilly Tennant
I really wanted to like this book, it was part of my Christmas Reads.. I was well armed with the comfy couch, plumped up cushions, cuppa tea, and my ever faithful kindle.

She discovered he was a bigamist or rather a polygamist, went to her … Continue reading Book Review – The Christmas Wish by Tilly Tennant

The Little Perfume Shop off the Champs Elysees by Rebecca Raisin
My review The story is about two people finding their way back to magic, the magic of perfume making, their love for the ingredients and their confidence.

Curves, Kisses and Chocolate Ice Cream by Sue Watson
My review We eat either to escape some emotional trauma or to fill an emotional need, and that's why it is known as comfort food. And this comfort food is almost always something delicious, something ridiculously fattening, and something which fills the mouth with bursts of flavor and hips with a bigger arse. That is … Continue reading Curves, Kisses and Chocolate Ice Cream by Sue Watson
Where the Sweet Bird Sings by Ella Joy Olsen
My review This story had such a great plot that I was excited enough to leave all work to read this. But alas and very woefully, I have to admit that this book did not hold my attention. It took me 4 days to finish reading. I tried to like the main character, Emma, I … Continue reading Where the Sweet Bird Sings by Ella Joy Olsen

The Last Piece Of My Heart by Paige Toon
My review The problem with giving your heart away to someone is that you never get it back. Long after you've fallen out of love with them, they still own a little piece of you.... These lines resonated so deep within me that it almost felt as if author Paige Toon is describing my story. … Continue reading The Last Piece Of My Heart by Paige Toon
