Huxley vs his parents,but who knows best!!

 This Much Huxley Knows by Gail Aldwin - Review



Huxley vs his parents,who knows best!!

This book is a standalone novel written by Gail Aldwin.The story is told through the eyes of 7 year old Huxley.When Huxley means Leonard at the hairdresser,Huxley just sees him as a lonely man,but his parents have other ideas.


My favourite character was Huxley,I loved his childhood innocence and how he views the world.All the characters are very well rounded and the reactions of the adults are sadly only too believable in this day and age.

My favourite part of the book is when Huxley is proved right,and I loved the way the book gets the reader to think like a child and how differently children see things in the world 


The only thing I struggled with in the book was when Huxley pronounces words wrong on purpose,i found it hard to relate to this part of the story,and didn’t quite understand the relevance of this,maybe this is just me and I couldn’t quite get into the brain of a 7 year old.


I would definitely recommend adults read this book as it makes you realise that sometimes adults read things into situations that are sometimes not there,and as adults we should listen to children more.

Bookworm Rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fate,Love and Magazines!!

  Fate,Love and Magazines!! Love by Design by Effie Kammenou Love by Design is book 2 in the Meraki Series.Although this book is in a series it can be read as a standalone novel. The book focuses on Mia Andarakis ,who has recently been promoted to work on a new magazine called Opul,and her relationship with magazine editor Nicholas Aristedis. My favourite characters were Mia and Nicholas,the characters were very well rounded and I really felt both characters as they had both gone through trauma in their lives. I loved the twist in the middle of the book which connected the lives of Mia and Nicholas,as well as the flashback chapters concerning what had made them the people they had become. I think the scenes written around Nicholas’s grief were well written,and grief can totally destroy you and I really felt for Nicholas. The book was a brilliant piece of romantic escapism,yet tackled some really difficult issues with some harrowing scenes. There wasn’t one thing I disliked about th...

Love and Pollination by Mari J Law Review  Pollination,Germination and a Seedling!! Love and Pollination is a stand-alone novel,by Mari J Law.The story follows the fabulous Perdita and her many embarrassing situations in the pursuit of love and happiness. I absolutely loved the character of Perdita,her character was brilliantly well written and I was totally engrossed in her world.I loved the way she thought of things in the terms of nature,as it showed her naivety and innocence,in how she dealt with the world. All the characters were brilliant and by the end I felt I knew all of the characters really well. My favourite part of the book for me was the ending as I was so pleased for Perdita,but I also loved reading about the scrapes Perdita got in.I loved the germination incident.   I loved the way this book kept me laughing whilst rooting for the characters. There is not one thing I disliked about this book.I found it engaging,funny and written with lots of heart.Anyone who lo...
