Blog Tour Stop with Review - The Garden on Holly Street by Megan Attley


Welcome to my stop on the Blog Tour for The Garden on Holly Street by Megan Attley. 


What They Say:
Sometimes you have to dig a little deeper to get the life you want . . .
Abby Hamilton's world has turned upside down in a matter of months - it seems that change is definitely in the air. But moving into Willow Court might just be the fresh start and happy distraction she needed.
Meeting her intriguing new neighbours helps push Abby out of her comfort zone. Then she finds an overgrown patch of garden in desperate need of love and time - something Abby has in spades! Throwing herself into bringing the garden back to life, Abby discovers that new beginnings can come from the most surprising places...

About The Author:
Megan Attley is the pseudonym of a bestselling and prolific women's fiction writer. She lives in South Wales with her husband, two children and three crazy (but beautiful) dogs.




What I Say:

The Garden on Holly Street is such a wonderful story of hope, friendship, love and second chances!

I adored all of the characters, especially Ernie! I related to Abby loads and cried for her right at the beginning of the book. Don't get me wrong, this isn't a sob story. But her history resonated with me and I felt for her. Everyone plays an excellent part in telling this story. I also loved how easily the dialogue flowed. It read like a conversation should, it was effortless.

The Garden on Holly Street made me think about how I spend my time, how I interact with my neighbours and the second chance I was lucky to get in my own life. Life after a break-up can be really hard. Abby had great friends in Lisa and Fiona and they helped push her out of her comfort zone in order to start living life for herself. They were fab and I loved their dynamic! Abby is so strong and resilient, she is the kind of woman I'd like to be friends with.

The Garden on Holly Street is a beautiful, uplifting and heart warming story, perfect for reading in your own little garden paradise.  9.5/10

Blog Tour Stop with Review - The Missing Girls by Carol Wyer

  Welcome to my stop on the Blog blitz for the fabulous third Instalment in the DI Robyn Carter series! What They Say: One girl found dead. Another girl gone... Long shadows danced on the tin walls. Inside the trunk lay Carrie Miller, wrapped in plastic, arms folded across her ribcage, lips sealed tight forever... When a girl’s body is found at a Midlands storage unit, it is too decomposed for Detective Robyn Carter to read the signs left by the killer. No one knows the woman in blue who rented the unit; her hire van can’t be traced. But as the leads run dry another body is uncovered. This time the killer’s distinctive mark is plain to see, and matching scratches on the first victim’s skeleton make Robyn suspect she’s searching for a serial-killer.  As Robyn closes in on the killer’s shocking hunting ground, another girl goes missing, and this time it’s someone close to her own heart.  Robyn can’t lose another loved one. Can she find the sickest individual she h...

My Review of Another Love by Amanda Prowse

Description ; "In the early years, she was happy. Romilly had worked hard for her stunning, modern house in one of Bristol's most fashionable suburbs. She adored her gorgeous, gap-toothed daughter and her kind and handsome husband. Sure, life was sometimes exhausting - but nothing that a large glass of wine at the end of the day couldn't fix. But then, as deep-buried insecurities surfaced, everything started to unravel. A glass of wine became a bottle; one bottle became two. Once, Romilly's family were everything to her. Now, after years of hiding the drinking, she must finally admit that she has found another love..." What I Say: I hadn't planned on posting my review of Another Love by Amanda Prowse yet as the book isn't out until (I believe) 16th January. However, I posted a brief review on Goodreads and Amanda has been sharing it on other social media so I thought she wouldn't mind. Another Love is a stunning, emotionally intense story of a wo...
