Sharon Grigg, who writes under the pen name S.L Grigg, made it her new year's resolution to publish her book 'Coffee Break Companion' during 2018. After bouncing back from mental health problems (BPD), following the death of her husband from a brain tumour in 2009, Sharon was struck down with kidney and other health problems, believed to be linked to having the Essure sterilisation device she had implanted back in 2008.

Just two months after setting her goal Sharon launched the collection of dark, short stories and poetry on Amazon. Many of the stories were written during S

A fun debut from the Absolute Radio breakfast show presenter. A dystopian future with only AI music would be my idea of a nightmare. I really enjoyed the competition element, it gave Ready Player One vibes. Some interesting twists and strange charact ...more

It was very fitting to be reading this whilst down under on a cruise. A haunting, beautiful tale of women's suffering, family and a dip into the mythological. The split timelines work really well to draw the two separate storyline into one tale. ...more

A classic will they, won't they romance. Just a bit of sexy fun. Sometimes work isn't everything, despite what us career-focussed gals might think, you need to have room for fun, and maybe love too (maybe I should be telling myself this? hmmm nah 😅) ...more

Described as "breathtaking" "Brilliant" and "Mesmerising" I found this incoherent, strange and disjointed. The characters were not appealing and aside from a clear point that one character would 'exit her body' at some point there seemed to be no obv ...more
