Crossroads by P Robertson
Thank you @ZooloosBT for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book.
Crossroads is a contemporary genre and is 77 pages long. Crossroads did not take me long to read and once I started I could not put it down. The story is about Izzy who married Luke and they decided they didn't want children but now Luke changed his mind and Izzy's head is in a spin because she is still adamant that she does not want children. This obstacle changes their relationship. I thought Izzy was a brave person to stick with her guns not wanting children and not changing her mind just because people are trying to. I feel P. Robertson has found a very good topic that does not get mentioned in books very often about women not wanting children. The world has changed from what it was a long time ago when women had no choice but to have children and now we get the choice. I felt like this was a brilliant read and wished it was longer I liked how she didn't just have Izzy's point of view but you head how Luke was feeling too. I strongly reccomend 5 stars.
Author Bio
P Robertson currently lives and works in Edinburgh. Her love of books began at an
early age when she would visit the local library every weekend. Despite other
interests, such as sports, becoming more of a focus as she grew older, her love for
books always remained. One of her favourite things is to curl up on the sofa with a
big blanket and a new book, completely unplugging from the outside world.
As a childfree woman, she struggled to identify with most of the female characters in
the stories she read. So, she decided to write her own stories, ‘Crossroads’ being one
of them, hoping to reach other childfree adults who might feel the same.
Book Blurb
Izzy has always been adamant about not wanting children. Her husband, Luke, had
also agreed with this stance until one fateful day when he reveals that he wants to
have a child.
Izzy is thrown into a difficult situation as she must decide whether to compromise
on her beliefs and have a child or not. She begins to question her own desires, plans
for the future and, most importantly, her relationship with Luke.
A compelling story that explores personal growth, self-discovery, and the importance
of communication in a relationship. It highlights the struggles of deciding whether to
have children and how that decision can impact a couple's dynamic.
