Review:
A breathless sneeze of a book... Refreshing and powerfully adept... Dewar has easily lived up to her enormous reputation * Irish News * This is something very special indeed. A delightful read... astute, poignant and addictive, with shades of Kate Atkinson * Sarah Broadhurst, Bookseller * Dewar's gift is to pull you into the minutiae of her people's lives. She takes you on a journey with them, a voyage you are happy to share in. Few writers are so good at making the reader empathise... Rowan is a delight * Scotland on Sunday * This is something very special indeed. A delightful read, equally enjoyed by my teenage and middle-aged reader. Dewar wrote GIVING UP ON ORDINARY, which was a joy, but this is better and deserves to increase her sales. It is astute, poignant and addictive, with shades of Kate Atkinson, and is full of lovely observations on human nature. She cares for her characters and so do we. Highly recommended * Sarah Broadhurst, Bookseller * You'll love this enchanting, touchy-feely fairy tale of small-town Scottish life * Options *
