Advance Praise

I thoroughly enjoyed Life, Slightly – I was very moved and at times felt quite emotional and tearful as I read. A good choice for a reader who wants to be immersed in the lives of two very different but interesting characters and follow them over many years! They will hold a special place in your heart!

Intensive Gassing About Books

This is a story about friends, family, sexuality, choices, the impact on others of those choices, and whether life should be lived fearlessly... This was such an authentic read... it left me with a massive book hangover, and this masterpiece of a story will stay with me for some time.
