REVIEWS

 

The reviews for The Paper Mill Girl have been amazing, some of them have even made me cry.

 

"A super saga with a gritty heroine," says The People's Friend magazine in their five star review! 

 

"Gritty, compelling and full of heart," says book blogger Bookish Jottings.

 

"As with its equally exciting predecessors, Glenda Young has once again blown all of those pre-conceived assumptions out of our minds like a gale swirling around the pier of Hendon Beach with her latest novel ‘The Paper Mill Girl’, and its fiercely independent heroine Ruth Hardy," says Clyde's Corner.

 

"An amazing read, superbly written," says Amanda Oughton at Ginger Book Geek.

 

"Characters that are so well developed. The book is superbly written," says Bookie Tracey.

 

"Heartwarming, emotional and simply wonderful", says book blogger Michelle Ryles at the Book Blogger.

IN THE NEXT NEWSLETTER

 

In the summer newsletter I'll share details of my first cosy crime novel - Murder at the Seaview Hotel. It's set in Scarborough on the Yorkshire coast with a fantastic heroine called Helen Dexter who solves crimes with the help of her greyhound Suki. The book stars a troupe of 12 Elvis impersonators, called Twelvis, and when one of them is found dead, with his blue suede shoes stolen, Helen and Suki are on the case to solve the crime.
