I would love to review this book, I was lucky enough to win it in a Goodreads giveaway. Unfortunately, despite twice being assured by the author, Brenda Wardle, that she was going to post it out to me, (The first delay, apparently was due to Pistorius' appeal but now that that was over she would "dispatch it to me immediately", the second time I made contact, the 27th, no explanation for the delay, but she would "put it in the post to me on the 29th". I'm still waiting and it must be four months now!
Any further contact I have tried to make has gone unanswered. I appreciate this was a free gift and so I am not out of pocket, but I entered because I genuinely wanted to read this book, and besides, why offer the book as a prize if you are not prepared to make good on the offer?
