Review: Spinster Club Series








AM I NORMAL YET :

THANK YOU USBORNE FOR SENDING ME A COPY OF THIS BOOK.



I cannot describe how much i loved this book. I really really LOVED this book.
There were so many emotions so many feelings in it. From laughing out loud to i cried too while reading it.
Not only this i also got to know what OCD really is, and how can it make a person feel like.
This book was also an example of true friendship.

To be honest i freaking loved this book, it was so so interesting.
And yes Kuddos to Holly Bourne for writing such a great book and talking on about those topics which people really do not talk about usually.
You are one of my favourite author now.

And yes this is also one of the most REALISTIC book i have read so far and one of the best book i have read in 2016 so far.

Can't wait to dive in other two books of the series.


Quote :
"“Do you ever wonder,” he asked, “how we decide what’s mad and what isn’t? There’s so much crazy stuff in the world – everything’s a mess most of the time – but then people who can’t handle it are called mental and have films made about them… But what if they’re just reacting to the weirdness of the universe? Isn’t it more weird to just think everything’s okay, when it clearly isn’t?”

“Because now people use the phrase OCD to describe minor personality quirks. “Oooh, I like my pens in a line, I’m so OCD.” NO YOU’RE FUCKING NOT. “Oh my God, I was so nervous about that presentation, I literally had a panic attack.” NO YOU FUCKING DIDN’T.”


There were so many other quotes which i liked from the book !
 




WHAT'S A GIRL GOTTA DO ?

Holly Bourne how do you do this ? Like how ?
The first two books in the series were so good. But I loved Lottie from the start because she always wanted to change everything, and this book was no doubt such an amazing read.

This book is a complete package of fun and teenage drama. From laughing out loud to I cried too reading the book. But at every point this book made me strong.

Characters of the book are so well described, the lead female character Lottie is fearless and will speak against sexism no matter what.
Evie and Amber her two best friends which are always there for her no matter what. Megan her new friend whom Lottie helped to fight and showed that girls are strong.

Every page of this book speaks about feminism and thats what I loved the most.
Holly is no doubt one of my favourite authors and she speaks so well. This book is a must read for every teenage girl out there.

No doubt, I loved the cover of the book. Everything is so good about this book. It is truly an inspiring story which Holly has written.

I can not wait for the fourth book to be released in the series.



AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR :



First of all a big thank you to Usborne for sending me an advance review copy of this book.

I have read all the books in Spinster club series and loved each and every book.
I was excited and sad at the same time because at one hand I was going to finish the series and at an other I did not wanted to end these amazing series.

It was a great ending to the series, just wished it would have been a little longer. I was so happy to read what happened with Amber, Lottie and Evie.


I would encourage anyone of any age to read this series and I guarantee you will relate to at least one of the three girls and not many series are able to do that!
Even though the ending was perfect I would totally read more novellas about the spinster club reuniting and meeting up...


This was one of my fav series.
Holly Bourne you are amazing !

Yes, I would recommend this book to everyone out there. Go and READ this book if you haven't


Review : Instructions for a second hand heart



This book revolves around two teenagers, Jonny and Niamh. Jonny is hospitalized, awaiting a new heart, whilst relying on Berlin Heart to be alive. Niamh is always in the shadow of Leo who is her older twin brother. Their lives intertwined when Jonny finally received his new heart from the death of Niamh's twin brother, Leo.

Obviously there many emotional aspects to this book. Dealing with terminally ill children and children who loose their lives is always going to be emotional but that is not the main aspect of this novel, so if you are worried about it being a morbid look at death and cancer and the like, then you need not fear! As I've mentioned above, these characters have a respect for life that so many of us forget about because of how close they have come to loss, but this doesn't mean either that this book is all about the completion of bucket lists and living life to the full. It is more about an attitude and a mind set than an about any actual thing. 



This is a storyline that will bring a lump to your throat and maybe even a tear to your eye. It is an emotional read but one that is also full of hope and also brings awareness to the importance of organ donations which is something I think we should all be aware of from a younger age. I really enjoyed this book and it had a quick pace too so I read it in one sitting and I am sure many more people will find they are unable to put it down too.

Tamsyn Murray has poured her heart and soul into this book and it speaks through the writing. Just when you think you can’t cry anymore, something else comes along to tip you off, until you’re an emotional wreck. 



Rating 4/5

Highly Recommended.
