First of the Last Chances - Sophie Hannah

Hurting Distance - Sophie Hannah

Hurting Distance - Sophie Hannah I bought this book at my local Tesco on a buy two for £7.00 deal and it was well worth it. I’m an avid reader and have read about 12 books this month of all different types. I tend to pick books by reading the back cover and then the first page and if it grips me immediately then I can’t leave it behind. The back of this book says “Three years ago, something terrible happened to Naomi Jenkins – so terrible she never told anyone” and the first page is an email she has written to a website called “Speak out and Survive”; you know then from the first page what Naomi’s secret is, she’s been raped. No I’m not giving the plot away, far from ...

Little Face - Sophie Hannah

I bought this book with no idea of what the works of Sophie Hannah had to offer, though what intrigued me was the mystery that lay behind the cover picture, which was incidentally very well chosen indeed. Often stories don t live up to the covers, though we as buyers are still pulled into buying books based on what they seem to be offering. The words upon the cover were tempting too that quoted "It s every mother s nightmare". I wanted something gripping, something that would hold my interest, and it showed promise. The Story This is a very well constructed piece of literature. The story revolves around the lives of Alice and David Fancourt, who live with a ...

Little Face - Sophie Hannah

A new novel by Sophie Hannah is cause for great celebration, at least as far as I m concerned. I loved her three previous novels - "Cordial and Corrosive" (probably my favourite), "Gripless" and "The Superpower of Love" - and am also a big fan of her poetry. So I was absolutely delighted to get my hands on this latest novel. "Little Face" is, however, something of a departure from Sophie s previous work. It s described on the jacket as a "psychological thriller" and is clearly packaged and marketed as such, with one of those cover pictures - common to missing-child thrillers - of an empty corridor with an abandoned toy at ...
