My latest book to review has no author or title. The idea is to read the book and try to guess the author. Those who are successful get a chance to win the 'ultimate summer reading bookshelf'. It's run by lovereading.co.uk in conjunction with Headline.
I'm 100 pages into the book and struggling to get on with it. So far I've been introduced to the family; from the mother who's just about to turn 80 through her children to her grandchildren. I've struggled to keep up with who is who and I'm not particularly drawn to any of the characters. The mother is going to have a big birthday party with everyone invited and it seems she will reveal a secret.
I will stick with it because I rarely leave a book half read, but not sure this is going to be a good review....
Update - last night I got to 180 pages and it's all starting coming together now. I've finally clicked with who all the characters are and how their relationships with each other work. It's getting better!
