I loved this story of young bereaved Chrissie waking up from
the cocoon she'd retreated into after the death of her husband. This could have
been a dark read but Mick's writing style is bright and breezy and you get
swept up in this tale of lost love and new hope. His characters are lively and
vivid yet he is able to show the struggles and pain of those who are suffering
difficulties.
I found the story quick paced and enjoyed how Mick used Chrissie's
diary notes to give us glimpses of Chrissie's former self and as an insight
into the guilt she is feeling. It was also a lovely way of signposting Chrissie's inner journey throughout the story.
This is a debut novel and there are a few imperfections but
I loved the premise and how the plot developed and most of all Mick's exuberant
writing style and I look forward to this author's future books as he has the makings of a great storyteller.
