Coming Home
Book
Three women. A lifetime of secrets. The only place to be is home. Ella comes back to the...
Since the death of her mother when she was a young teenager, Delphine has had to care for her father who has been in the depths of grief and depression. Delphine is in survival mode, working two jobs and struggling to make ends meet.
And then the doors begin to open for her. She rediscovers her voice - both spoken and singing. Delphine realises that she wants more, but she has a secret that she’s trying to keep from everyone - including herself.
This is a story of second chances, self-belief, family and friends (both equally as important to Delphine). A thoroughly feel good novel - and we all need one of those from time to time, don’t we!
Many thanks to Beth Morrey for reading along with us and commenting along on the Pigeonhole.

I could probably best describe this by the 6 words I heard my mum (who doesn't really watch any of the Marvel stuff) say when she saw a bit of an episode of this:
"What on earth is this rubbish?"
While, personally, that was maybe a bit strong for me - I wouldn't go quite as far as calling it rubbish - it does more-or-less reflect my feelings on the show: for a (supposed) sit-com, there's very little funny in it, with what comedy there is being painful to watch rather than amusing.
Does bring Charlie Cox's Daredevil back into the fold, though (eventually), and really REALLY leans heavily into trolling its own fans ...

Set over two timelines: the present day as Shelley dresses for her wedding, and twenty years earlier on her hen party.
Shelleys’s best friend organises a weekend in Spain at Shelley’s aunts house, joined by her very serious mum, her other aunt and Shelley’s cousin.
It doesn’t get off to a great start from the moment they all meet at the airport, and it gets worse when they arrive in Spain.
Shelley’s very rich fiancé is staying in an exclusive hotel nearby, with his family and a friend. On their first night in Spain, Shelley gets a very strange text message from his phone.
This is a hilarious book with some great, relatable characters (particularly the aunt that uses a mobility scooter - she gave me Benidorm flashbacks!). It portrayed the importance of good friends and family who all support one another.
I’d definitely recommend this as a pick me up!
