The Perfectly Imperfect Woman

The Perfectly Imperfect Woman - Milly Johnson

Marnie Salt has made so many mistakes in her life that she fears she will never get on the right track. But when she ‘meets’ an old lady on a baking chatroom and begins confiding in her, little does she know how her life will change.

Arranging to see each other for lunch, Marnie finds discovers that Lilian is every bit as mad and delightful as she’d hoped – and that she owns a whole village in the Yorkshire Dales, which has been passed down through generations. And when Marnie needs a refuge after a crisis, she ups sticks and heads for Wychwell – a temporary measure, so she thinks.

But soon Marnie finds that Wychwell has claimed her as its own and she is duty bound not to leave. Even if what she has to do makes her as unpopular as a force 12 gale in a confetti factory! But everyone has imperfections, as Marnie comes to realise, and that is not such a bad thing – after all, your flaws are perfect for the heart that is meant to love you.

I do love a Milly Johnson, she never disappoints, and this new book is not a disappointment. Devoured this book in a few days.

The characters in this book are well presented and well thought out. I loved everything about this book, from the ups to the downs. Marnie is a great character and this is only edged on by Lilian. How Milly comes up with great characters who bounce off each other I have no idea. The location of Wychwell reminded me of a village on the outskirts of Oxford and could Imagine all this happening, this is a sign on a good writer. I really enjoyed the names of the cottages and everything that went with it. This story makes you think you have the ending when actually you don’t. It keeps you guessing until the end.

Fantastic story. Milly is at her best.

The Slow Lane Walkers Club - Rosa Temple

Buy Here This is my first book by Rosa Temple and it won't be my last. I was a bit unsure when I started it. However I loved it. Its not often I finish a book and end up hugging it because I loved it so much. The characters were great, Hazel is amazing. She reminds me of an old family friend who never gives up no matter what. Daniel is a kind lad who I think is slightly misunderstood when he arrives back in Cornwall. Their relationship is fantastic, one you can only dream about having with your grandmas friend. This book is one big giant hug and it's exactly what I needed at the time of reading. Once you start you dont want to stop. Best book of the year so far!

Shattered Bones - Kate Bendelow

Listen here This is my first Kate Bendelow book. I have to say I throughly enjoyed it, the reader of this audiobook did a great job and it really made the book for me. The voices were amazing and really allowed you to fine fine tiune the characters. The book itself is the 2nd in a series, which you only noticed in a few parts. I was actually giggling in some parts of the story, it was nice to have some laughs in a crime book. I really liked the story and the whose done it narrative. There were twists and turns galore. Really enjoyable and will hunting out book number one in the series.
