But I found this one more factual rather than disturbing and it gave me a huge perspective on what we see on the news. <br /><br />@Julie - yes, the books are very interesting and it's a great way of supporting new writers as well as the charity. <br /><br />@Hilary - yes it was a book of the week and well deserved too. Good to hear from you<br /><br />@Pempi, how wonderful to hear from you - I've thought about you often and I hope all is well with you and yours. YOur name just came up as Unknown.

The book sounds amazing but I am not sure that I could read it. Since becoming a Mother I find some books so difficult to read, it changes your perspective and stops me sleeping as the thoughts go round my head!sustainablemumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04099701194160334671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841505878252085938.post-16950271255300167612020-04-29T19:41:47.488+01:002020-04-29T19:41:47.488+01:00I've made a note of the Shelterbox and will pa...I've made a note of the Shelterbox and will pass on the info to my book group people as this is something they might be interested in.<br />Thank you for the recommendation.
