The Bridge to Always by Lynda Marron

By Emma Fitzgerald -
Thank you @eriu_books @bonnierbooks_uk @KellyALacey @lovebookstours #Ad #LBTCrew #BookTwitter For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Wow! And wow. The Bridge to Always is an outstanding read that made me laugh and cry. I read this in one sitting and could not put it down. This is the first book I have read by Lynda Marion and her writing style is easy to get into, and I will be definitely reading more of her books in the future. The story is about Maeve who moves to west Cork with her daughter Esme to fulfill her dream to find Tim her ex-boyfriend, but this does not go the way she thinks it’s going to go, on the way we meet some nice characters and not so nice characters. This is a heartwarming read and beautifully written. I liked Maeve and Esme a lot, plus her neighbors that I loved getting to know and Infelt like they were old friends. The story is written in third person which I quite enjoyed this style to listen to the other characters story from their perspective. I loved how the story was set in a village, and it sounded beautiful in Cork, made me what to visit. I strongly recommend this book, ii is spectacular. 5 stars. Blurb A story about identity and place, about finding out who you are, who your people are, and what it means to be a family. Maeve Gaffney arrives in a small West Cork town in pursuit of a dream: to be reunited with Tim, the lad she fell for years ago and who, unbeknownst to him, fathered her daughter, Emer. For Tim, now married and a pillar of the community, Emer's existence is a shock - but the chance to rekindle an old flame with her mother is tempting. For Agnes, a lonely landowner, Maeve and Emer's arrival is an opportunity to make money - and maybe new friends. For Malachi, a man of few words but deep emotions, it's . . . complicated. For Emer, it's about growing up and finding her voice. For all five, the arrival of this beautiful, wild mother and her silent, observant daughter sparks a devastating chain of events none of them could have predicted. Author bio Lynda Marron grew up in a small town called Prosperous in County Kildare. She moved to Cork when she was nine and lives there still. She studied science at University College Cork and holds a master's degree in microbiology. She likes stories about long-held love, friendship, and second chances. When she isn't writing or reading, you'll find her in the garden.

Thank you @strangelymagic and @neemtreepress for letting me review this book. War of the wind is 220 pages snd is you g adukt fiction. I really enjoyed reading this book and felt like ot held my attention to the end. I really like the characters my favourite where Max, Beanie and Erin. I love the plot with the evil Doctor Asheood and the wind turbines. It was lovely to see Max develop and start to accept his disabiliny and for Max to have the strengh to tell his dad how he felt about him not communicate with him. My heart did go out to dad ehen i found out why. It did make me sad in places but its great read and gripped me. I slso liked hid uncle and twister. I feel young adults will love this story its diffent and its grest suspence.

Thank you, @HeatherJFitt , for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Escape is set in the Mediterranean about John who has lost his wife and is trying to run away from his sadness and Pain but his life starts to change but not for the better. The descriptions in the book were brilliant. It made me feel I was in the Mediterranean with John. I found the story slow at the beginning but after a few chapters the pace sped up and then I could not put it down. I did feel sorry for John due to him seeing happy couples around him. He was surround in greif and drank to get rid of his pain.Then I felt more bad for him when he ended up in the world of drugs. I wanted to shout at him to run. Entertaining story that will keep you gripped to the end. If you like crime mystery this book is for you 4 stars. That is the question John, a trauma doctor, asks himself over and over as he mourns the death of his wife. Lost and alone, he wanders the streets of a glamorous Mediterranean...
