This book was a really fun and enjoyable read. The characters were relatable and had great depth. I definitely recommend it and will be ordering copies for my library.

This book initially was captivating to me. But later on, sadly, that's really not my type of book
Katy is a career mum in her 40s who’s stressed out, time-starved, and disenchanted with her successful life. She has a handsome husband, a house in London, and two teenage children. Her therapy practice in Harley Street is thriving, but she feels empty and lost. She’s forgotten who she is and what makes her tick. An impulsive decision sets in motion a domino effect that changes her life. A series of events, a meeting with someone from the past, and a sequence of numbers send her on a rollercoaster ride to finding herself. With some trepidation, Katy embarks on a path of spiritual awakening and embraces a new way of thinking.
Sections that were jumping between Richard and Katy were confusing as there wasn't a definite gap between the scene changes and I was left having to re-read to work out where I was. Also, what's up with those mirror things?

The blurb and the cover had me really wanting to read this book but I’ll admit I was left feeling disappointed. There is a lot of heavy spiritual talk that I found really hard to follow and uninteresting, to the point I was skim reading these parts. Katy, the main character is likeable, but her story isn’t finished. Is her husband having an affair? Does she find out? Does she leave her husband for Tony? Do they end up together. Who knows because the story abruptly ended with no conclusions whatsoever. I feel really disappointed that I read it to get nowhere. I have given 2 stars because, heavy spritualism aside, the storyline was good but it I was wonder what the point in reading it is if there is no ending? Won’t be recommending.

This book is readable, but a little trite and artificial. I feel like it’s a ‘Seth book’, you know, a higher power talking to you directly, we’re all connected, follow your dreams etc etc. it will certainly be someone’s cup of tea but just not for me.

The main character has the perfect life on the surface- attractive successful husband, 2 kids and successful therapy practice. In reality, she is very unfulfilled in a marriage with no communication or understanding g. She tries a number of new wave therapies to improve her life.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for a honest review.
When I first read the blurb, I have to say that I was not expecting to reach such a story.
While adding spirituality to a book can also add real depth, I found it a bit over the top here and that it was preventing me to fully enjoy the story.
Because I did enjoy reading about Katy, struggling in her marriage and going through a life and identity crisis. And I was also interested when Tony and his own issues were introduced.
I thought however that the spiritual, and mystical side was getting in the way. I found myself repeatedly skipping paragraphs when Katy was having conversations (sometimes with herself/the Voice) about the True Self, numerology and other concepts, hoping we would soon go back to the story.
I would recommend this book to people who absolutely enjoy reading about spirituality, soul contracts, twin flames, and similar notions.

Thank you Netgalley for this ARC for an honest review.
What an interesting story. Really makes you think about life decisions. Great read.

This book initially was captivating to me. Katy’s life as a busy 40something mom juggling home and career is of interest to me. Unfortunately the mystical elements and the mirror talk made me dislike the book. It’s just not my cup of tea. I wanted a more traditional story about a mom trying to balance home and career demands which this book did ok in the beginning but then the narrative kept going into all these mentions of new age practices and mysticism. I’m not into that stuff. I do yoga and have tried and failed to get good at meditating. But this book was heavily into that and as a result I didn’t really enjoy it as much. But for someone else who is into the new agey practices, this would be a good book to read. Thanks NetGalley and the publisher for giving me a chance to read and provide an honest review.

Unfortnately this one was not for me.
At first the family life of Katy and Richard seemed to hit home and I could feel myself connecting with the overwhelming lifestyle that accompanies motherhood and that precarious balance of work and life that Katy was juggling.
But when Katy starts talking to the mysterious light in the mirror - things took a turn for me.
The dialogue of existential crisis between Katy and the energy was arduous and lent more in the "telling" not "showing" the story - and to be honest i was skimming it and still getting the gist.
Sections that were jumping between Richard and Katy were confusing as there wasn't a definite gap between the scene changes and I was left having to re-read to work out where I was.
Things with Tony and Katy were interesting, and gripping - but then left me wondering as it was clipped and no real conclusion.

This book was wonderful!! The story will make you think, make you feel, and make you want more! So well done and a perfect read.
