Finding Audrey

Product Information

The family goes on strike and Mum hides her sandwich in the flower bed and next week we’re not gluten free anymore. I'm not saying it's not possible or they don't deserve happily ever afters, but the way it's presented in this book makes me cringe. I found the novel to be heartfelt and charming, at times funny, at others poignant and always honest.

You know, the prize pot in the international LOC competition in Toronto this year is six million dollars!But then again, I had issues with it that I was hoping wouldn't arise but unfortunately I couldn't ignore. And yes, I know hate is a strong word and I shouldn’t waste my energy on hating a book when that energy could go to reading books that I will end up loving but this book hurt me.

It is a feel-good novel that will make you laugh out loud; certainly fluffy and light but never offensive. Audrey is a brave, charming and resourceful girl and I hope she will inspire you as much as she has inspired me. and the other is that I often find MG characters too immature for my taste, but Kinsella's magic did it again and totally made this book and character relatable, fun, and all with an important message delivered to the readers. there are little hints here and there and names mentioned, but no specific details are given, which just leaves you to use your imagination. The whole way to Starbucks she’s panicking and then we get to Starbucks and she can easily talk to the barista without so much as a batted eye….I think her recovery was too quick-- and the pace of this book just went too fast in general; there was a very unrealistic jump from "omg don't enter the same room as me" to "omg let's make out. And I’m not even talking about the romance because although there may be a little romance, it’s not really romance-romance.
