I decided to read this debut Novel by Tasmina Perry because the jacket description was appealing. I would describe it upon first glance as Chick Lit although later I think this theory will appear slightly incorrect. Tasmina's first novel features the Balcon sisters.

The book starts off with their fathers murder, and then goes on to about a year prior to that and what went on, then back to the ...  Read the complete review
