| I've been holding onto Hunted for a while, knowing this would be the final instalment in Maddy and Alexandre's tale. I'm glad I didn't rush into it as Hunted was worth the wait. Once again Shalini makes the past relevant to the present, the dual stor ...more | |

A book filled with insights, honesty, and positivity, and one which has arisen from a sincere desire to help others understand Asperger's better. I've learned a lot from Elin's book and hope my empathy has improved as a result of my clearer understan ...more |

Another great read from Sarah Wynde! I really do enjoy her writing, and the world and characters she's created within (and beyond) Tassamara. I liked finding out more about Zane's brother, Lucas, and his past; and also more about Dillon as he continue ...more |
