So pleased to be on the blog tour for this one on 19 October - check back then for my review.

Description Fran’s wedding dress shop isn’t like any other. A treasure trove of history, filled with gowns from every decade for every type of bride. But not as you’d expect. Something bold for the shy and retiring. Something simple for the woman who is unafraid to stand out. And something dazzling for the bride who wouldn’t normally dare to be different. No matter your expectations, you’d never guess your own perfect dress. But Fran knows… she feels the wisdom woven into every gown, a gift from the previous owner waiting to be handed down to the next bride. When Fran finds a dress that seems to be  perfect for her  she can’t wait to know its complex history which starts with her getting to know the son of the previous owner… Review What an absolutely lovely book this is, especially for someone like me who loves fashion, fabric and arts and crafts. The author's sumptuous details of all of these themes made the book an absolute haven for me. She even had a refe

Description Five friends, four mysteries, three deaths, two road trips and a secret that will change the world ... Entanglement is a quirky mystery with a sci-fi twist that’s influenced by the humour of Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett/Neil Gaiman. David Marston drops out of contact, and his fiancé is worried. A secret research base vanishes, and MI5 is nervous. Then a colony of moles goes missing, an ordinary house brick appears out of thin air, and intertwined with it all is the story of a woman continually shifting between parallel worlds. But how can all this possibly be connected? And why are cakes so important? Entanglement  is a warm, funny and original tale about friendship, loss and coping when you’re out of your depth. It also invites the reader to ask, “What if?” What if that person at university had said yes? What if you hadn’t answered that voicemail? Review I love time travel books and whilst this isn't strictly time travel, it's time disp
