My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I tackled this after “little secrets” by the same author which I loved and many people seemed to like this book more. I sort of guessed the twist so I thought this one wasn’t as good but it was still pretty excellent and fast paced and hard to put down. Hillier is an excellent writer.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Another gem. In fact, I might have liked this one even more than the previous one. Monk and Robot continue their adventures as they go back into town, meeting different people. I love these books.

I am a fan of Kim Hooper. I love her writing and I love her characters. I loved these interconnected stories all within the theme around motherhood, pregnancy, infertility.

Doing too much catastrophizing. Need to breathe and be in the present moment.
