Perfect

Rachel Joyce

Black Swan

Gifted Paperback

I read this book because of 'The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry' and was not disappointed with it. Once again Rachael created lovely broken characters wanting to be swallowed by the hearts of compassionate readers. I enjoyed the story, totally didn't see the twist in the second-to-last chapter coming and utterly hated the tidying up in the feel-good final chapter. For me, a person who does not need a happy ending, this book was ruined in the last chapter.

3.5/5

Autobiography of a Marguerite

Zarah Butcher-McGunnigle

Hue & Cry Press

[Paperback]

Brilliant, simply a brilliant book. I couldn't read this book slow enough and purposely delayed the finishing of it. The story was beautifully crafted and left images floating around my head for days.

By far the best poetry to date that I have read.
