MORRIE is part of the Little Christmas series and I loved it from start to finish. Morrie has his issues and Scott is just the person to help him work through them. Scott doesn't push and gives Morrie time and space to figure out what he needs or wants to do. Their relationship is warm and fuzzy from the beginning. Morrie is quite clear on what he can and can't do and Scott is supportive of that.

This is the first book by this author I have read, although I can guarantee it won't be the last. I really need Perry and Silas to get together, plus Russ needs his own partner. Plus, I need to read Hobie and Ambrose's story. I'm hooked!

Heartbreaking, tender, supportive, loving - all these words describe this book. It was an absolute delight and I have no hesitation in recommending it.

The Awakening Is a groundbreaking story about female infidelity in the Victorian Era.
I’ve come to the conclusion that some reviews are best for me to write ‘on reflection’ as my first thought after reading ‘The Awakening’ was ‘meh’, then I put some thought into it.
I can see how when this book was first released it did cause a bit of a furore, and I can even see that possibly even in this day and age if this had been one of the first books I had read on relationships how it would have affected me. However at the tender age of 40, with all that I have read and seen it just doesn’t have the intended impact on me, and that is a shame.
A similar thing happens with music, songs that were released in the sixties and considered ‘groundbreaking’ don’t move me as much as they did people back then because I’ve heard so much music that was ‘inspired by it’ that it doesn’t have the same wow factor as it did when it was first released.
Anyway, back to ‘The Awakening’ I think it really did have a strong ending though, and for that alone it will stick with me for a while.
