I fell under the spell of this book...does that make me an angel?
Advantages: Compelling, lots of twists and turns, cleverly written so the ending was a surprise Disadvantages: The awful cover is very misleading!

'A MOTHER'S LOVE' ...A NOVEL REVIEW
Advantages: Well written with strong characters Disadvantages: End was a little disppointing
'A Mother's Love' a novel by Lyn Andrews
I borrowed 'A Mother's Love' by Lyn Andrews from my daughter at Christmas as I had nothing to read, a situation that just had to be rectified! The copy I am reviewing is a large sized paperback which bears the cover price of £11.99. I am reviewing the paperback book, not an audio book, so please disregard the specific criteria section!!
**THE PLOT**
Set in Liverpool in 1933, the novel tells the story ... ...Eddie Dobson has a gambling habit and an eye for the lazy barmaid he and his wife employ.
His daughters are almost grown up but Eddie feels stifled by his wife and family. The eldest daughter, Sarah is a waitress in a hotel, a reliable if dull girl. Maggie, the second daughter is engaged to Billy and works in a greengrocers' shop, she is rather snobbish and has hopes for improving her lot once safely married. The youngest, Lily is a trial to her ...

A Perfect Stranger
Advantages: mysterious, challenging Disadvantages: a little on the short side
...of view adds a little extra something that we're not always used to in her novels. This one is very romantic, yet depressing at times. She adds twists of happiness into swirls of sinfulness and always manages to keep you rooting for the happy couple, no matter what else happens. ...
