Once in a while, a book comes along that you fall head over heels in love with and which you utterly adore and this is that book.

The author has created a protagonist who is down to earth, relatable, likeable and I absolutely loved her. In fact there were just so many things I loved. From her son Archie, her dog Becks, her dreams and aspirations. Hell, I wanted to be her!

By the end of the novel I felt like the characters were dear friends. I laughed, cried and had a whole array of emotions going on. The author touches on the subject of grief and boy do some things really hit home when reading this novel. Whilst you may be wrong in thinking it is going to be a bit morbid, it is far from it, as this really is a light hearted read that really packs a punch.

Vinnie is a fabulous love interest of who, will have all readers wanting one in their lives. He really is a dream boat and I found myself helplessly falling in love with the idea of him. Monica, Grace’s friend, now I’m not sure whether I should use the term loosely as her help with getting Grace on the dating scene is something I certainly would not be grateful for. It does make for some hilarious reading though. If anything it made the two women’s friendship more authentic.

Amazing Grace is this years must read! It is fun, witty, emotional, romantic and full to the brim with all different types of love. It totally stole my heart and with out a doubt will be one of my top reads of 2019. An outstanding debut from an author whose books I can not wait to see more of.

I had been looking forward to reading Amazing Grace when I heard it was by Kim Nash. It sounded like it would be a really great read. Sadly, it wasn't for me. The writing is good, and the story is lovely but it just didn't suit me. Maybe its a case of right book, wrong time. Fans of Holly Martin and Christie Barlow will love this one!

I am super excited to share my thoughts with you today for Amazing Grace by Kim Nash who I have to say has been very supportive and helpful with my blogging for the past 3 years. Not only that, she has been supportive to other authors. There has been many a time when Kim has said to me message the author a link to your review, it’s their debut and they are really nervous….Louise Jenson is one that especially springs to mind. Now it’s my turn to do that to Kim….. So here is what I think

My thoughts

First of all I have to say that I can't believe this is a debut novel it read like the author has been writing for years. Amazing Grace is so exceptionally fantastic all you chick lit fans are going to love it because I certainly did. What can I say but this book is not only absolutely amazing, it’s funny and heart melting. Kim must be the only person I know that can make me laugh and then make me cry in a matter of minutes. All in a good way of course taking me on a whirlwind of emotions.

We follow single parent Grace on a journey to find happiness after years of being with Mark. A character that I just wanted to punch in the face! Then along comes Vinnie the hottie gardener...OMG ladies you are going to love him. Grace finds herself in a situation that she doesn't know what to do for the best.

OMG what a page turner I devoured this in one sitting I simply couldn't read it fast enough.

I bloody loved Grace she is definitely amazing. Being a single parent myself I could totally relate to her and also the fact that she doesn't have her mom in her life to call when she needs some advice….I know that feeling all to well. Not only is Grace realistic but the whole story is.

Kim has an incredible talent of making you connect with the characters where I found myself routing for Grace and I also found myself screaming at her saying OMG woman what the hell are you doing! Talk about going through the motions. I love it when a story has that effect on me.

This is the best Romantic Comedy I have read in a long time and Kim wants to be really proud of herself. It is beautifully written story that will seriously melt your heart and will stay with me forever giving it all the stars

OMG! OMG! OH-MY-Goodness-Gracious-Amazing-Grace! Move over Bridget Jones, there's a new gal in town and her name is GRACE! I absolutely ADORED this uplifting, inspirational and moving book from the fabulous Kim Nash! This is not normally a genre I read, but I was immediately drawn to Grace and hooked from page one!

A thought-provoking, feel-good and laugh-out-loud fun read, it evoked all the emotions...I was seriously #uglycrying at times and laughing the next minute.

My full review will be posted for the blog tour - but I have to say, I am hooked on Grace and highly recommend this amazing read!
