Take the kids to the park, go shopping, listen to music, walk beside a river, eat cake. But come back to writing the following morning; refreshed, revitalised, re-energised, clear-headed.(less)

If I couldn't write, I'd be an irritable stress-head. Writing frees the mind, allows you to express yourself, releases your thoughts and enables you to work flexibly; albeit in a self-disciplined way, to your own time-frame (I can eat, drink, tidy-up, work and write all at the same time).(less)

It’s Not What You Think by Clare Mackintosh
"I really thought this was going to be a domestic thriller — paranoia, secrets, maybe an affair, maybe a murder. That’s what the blurb promised. But the book takes a completely different turn, and honestly, it just wasn’t for me. So the title at least" Read more of this review »
It’s Not What You Think by Clare Mackintosh
"I really enjoyed the first half of this book and flew through it, unfortunately for me it got a bit bogged down by politics after that, which I am definitely not a fan of. It is well written and has a few good twists. I did guess the end one so maybe" Read more of this review »

I love Mackintosh's books and this was no exception. I liked it more than I Let You Go, and found the twists more realistic and compelling, even though we were given plenty of red herrings to lead us to conclude each one before they hit. The problem ...more
It's Not What You Think by Clare Mackintosh
"The only Clare Mackintosh book that I've been disappointed with. Too leftie and woke for me. If you're not a leftie you must be 'Far right'. Nope, not for me. I only finished it out of respect for the author."

Quotes by Louise Mullins  (?)

“Some things must remain the same in order for the universe to flow properly. One pebble dashed out across the ocean leaves a lifetime of ripples. They call it the butterfly effect.”
Louise Mullins

“Sometimes what we imagine is much worse than reality. When people stop communicating their feelings to each other it becomes much easier to hold back. When something happens that you'd usually tell your wife or husband it becomes difficult because you're no longer talking as openly as you once were. Soon you start to withhold more and more from one another, holding less intimate conversations, until eventually you begin to appear secretive, hostile even. Passive recipients of each others behaviour, rather than active partners. One day you wake up full of resentment and bitterness. You want your wife to pay, take responsibility for their part in making you feel this way. You want to hurt them.”
Louise Mullins, Why She Left
