Another Night, Another Day
Blurb

Three people, each crying out for help . . . There’s Karen, worried about her dying father; Abby, whose son has autism and needs constant care; and Michael, a family man on the verge of bankruptcy. As each sinks under the strain, they’re brought together at Moreland’s Clinic. Here, behind closed doors, they reveal their deepest secrets, confront and console one another and share plenty of laughs. But how will they cope when a new crisis strikes? NetGalley

I have just finished Spilt Milk by Amanda Hodgkinson, an accomplished historical novel that charts the way women were perceived, some might say judged, by their communities during the first half of the twentieth century.

Next I plan to read Remember Me This Way by Sabrine Durrant.  Despite being curious about this author’s debut novel, Under Your Skin, I didn’t get around to reading it.  I have a feeling if I like this second novel I may need to add the debut to the TBR.

Remember Me This Way

Blurb

Everyone keeps telling me I have to move on. And so here I am, walking down the road where he died, trying to remember him the right way.
A year after her husband Zach’s death, Lizzie goes to lay flowers where his fatal accident took place.
As she makes her way along the motorway, she thinks about their life together. She wonders whether she has changed since Zach died. She wonders if she will ever feel whole again.
At last she reaches the spot. And there, tied to a tree, is a bunch of lilies. The flowers are addressed to her husband. Someone has been there before her.
Lizzie loved Zach. She really did.
But she’s starting to realise she didn’t really know him.
Or what he was capable of . . . Goodreads

    1. I do like historical fiction which feels authentic, this one does, and although the themes are common ones Amanda Hodgkinson has created layered characters to inject a feeling freshness to the tale.

    1. I’m really enjoying it. The author published One Moment, One Morning in 2010 and this one follows the main character from that book. I like the writing style, Sarah Rayner manages to pack a lot into her books.
