This week, my new novel The Paper Mill Girl is on a "blog tour" where book bloggers receive the book from Headline in exchange for honest reviews on their own blogs.
Day 2 of the blog tour was at Michelle Ryles' blog The Book Magnet where she has written an amazing review which includes: "I'm not ashamed to say that I shed a tear or twoI was positively beaming towards the end of the book and tears of happiness brimmed in my eyes but I quickly blinked them away so I could keep reading as I didn't want to miss a single word.
I always look forward to reading the author's note in Glenda Young's books as her research is outstanding and adds authenticity to the story. I actually didn't realise that Sunderland had a paper mill and even though I've had a book in my hand for most of my life, I had never considered the composition of paper. It was really interesting to get a glimpse inside a working mill in 1919 through Glenda's fantastic storytelling.
The Paper Mill Girl is heart-warming, emotional and simply wonderful. It's perfect escapism and I really can't recommend it highly enough as I absolutely loved it. If you think family sagas aren't for you, you've never read Glenda Young's books - pick one up today and you'll be converted."
