GUEST POST BY THE LOVELY ANNA BLOOM

The Uni Files Year One – The Art of Letting Go Read-Along Hey! Anna here, C ait messaged me last night and asked if I would write you guys a quick post telling you about the read-along we are arranging for my debut novel The Uni Files – The Art of Letting Go. The novel comes out next week, and can I just say I am completely overwhelmed by the positive response and support I am getting from readers and bloggers alike – I am feeling very loved right now which is great in itself. So anyway the idea for the read-along is we are going to split the novel into three sections, following the natural breaks in the story. Autumn, Spring and Summer terms i.e. The academic year. Each section will then be picked up by a blogger on their own site and they can discuss their favourite bits and try to guess where the story is going etc. The rest of the read-along gang can comment away. I will make sure everything is posted on my blog as well so we can keep track of everything.  I shou

Blog Tour Review: Let Me Go BY L.L Akers

Let Me Go by L.L Akers Genre: New Adult, Coming-of-age, Written by: L.L Akers Available as: Paperback, Kindle version Buy it here Published by:  SmArt Group Consulting, LLC         Meet Twin Sisters Gabriella and Olivia and step into their world of crushing heartbreak, constant fear and anguish. 'Let Me Go' was almost like an out-of-world experience for me, like I was watching myself, read the book, but I was right within those pages, looking out at the person holding the book. It is a story about a trio of sisters struggling to cope with abuse, while trying to fight for their families survival. Prior to starting the book, I asked around a little, (as always) to get a feel of other peoples views on the matter and I was shocked to see just how many people either didn't realize or didn't want to realize just how much truth there was to the story. I couldn't believe how often I heard the words '' GROSS EXAGGERATION '

And, really, if she had it her way, he’d never know how she’d felt. Now, he was one of her best frie
