Back to the Magic & in Search of my Readership

This week I’ve started writing more of The Music of Flowers again, though it’s been hard to work out what’s going on, and what on earth Julia & Fleur are up to. In fact, I was terrified of restarting it at all, but in the end it went okay. If I keep writing, something will happen - I hope. It usually does. Plus it’s been quite cold this week so I’ve worn fingerless gloves in order to be able to ty Read more of this blog post »

Anne Brooke and 2 other people liked Katie's review of Two's Company:
Two's Company by Jill Mansell
"2.75-3 stars

Anne Brooke and 3 other people liked Imogen's review of Two's Company:
Two's Company by Jill Mansell
"2.5 stars!

For the first half, this book made me REALLY mad. As a few other people have said, Jack's cheating on his wife Cass was what really infuriated me. And Imogen was SUCH a bitch! Which made me sad because she has the same name as me! :(
