Terrific!
"A terrific first novel from E I Parr. The prose is beautiful. Really enjoyed the exploration of female
friendships."
“A page-turning psychological exploration of three women as they navigate the turbulent
transition from youth to adulthood. Beautifully written and utterly engrossing. Would highly
recommend!”
“I was hooked from the first couple of pages and didn’t want to put it down. The book draws you
right into the lives of the characters. Beautifully written and heartbreaking.”
“There is nothing to dislike about this book! Gripping from start to finish. Wonderfully engaging
characters with unexpected plot twists. Was saving this book for my holiday but once I started I could
not put it down and finished it before I went!”
"The detail in the descriptive passages is mesmerizing at times in this accomplished first novel. I found myself recognizing and identifying with elements of all three main characters as they journeyed to their individual conclusions. I enjoyed especially some of the ‘asides’ which were almost Shakespearean. The overall feeling I had was that at any point in any of their lives, whilst a measure of control might be achieved, fate and happenstance still has a major part to play. I never saw the twist coming! Hope to see more from this new author."
“I thoroughly enjoyed reading about Thistle and her friends and would highly recommend it.
Not always a comfortable read, but it kept me guessing, so much so that it was hard to put down,
As I wanted to know what was going to happen next.
The well written descriptions gave me a vivid picture of their lives in the 70’s and 80’s with a bit of
nostalgia woven in.”
“Thoroughly enjoyed this book, normally takes a chapter or two to get into the story and
characters, but instantly was in this brilliantly written book, the story following three girls with very
different lives, with a very unexpected ending . Highly recommend, loved it.”
