The World of the West End,Broadway and a few Celebrities Along the Way!!

Namedropping in the Wings-by David Collison -🎭Book Review 🎭

The World of the West End,Broadway a few celebrities along the way!!

Name Dropping in the wings is a stand alone non fiction book,delving in to the fascinating behind the scenes world of the theatre,through eyes of leading sound consultant David Collinson.

I am a huge fan the theatre and this was right up my street.Dealing with behind the scenes of some of the worlds biggest musicals and plays.

My favourite parts of the book were brilliant anecdotes about some of Britain’s biggest stars including David Niven,Judi Dench,Kenneth Williams and many more.I also loved reading about all wonderful musical the author has worked on over the years.

I loved the way book dealt with the successes and the flops in the theatre world,and not only concentrated on the theatre successes which a lot of books would have done.

I have nothing bad to say about this book and found totally entertaining from beginning to end.

This is perfect for any fans of the theatre,whether you a drama student or a theatre goer,this book would appeal to all.

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...

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 ...

A New Dawn Over Mulberry Lane is Book 8 in the Mulberry Lane Series,this book can be read as a standalone novel.This story focuses on Dr Shirley,Maggie,Freddie,Fay and Jon,Peggy and Maureen’s Children and grandchildren. My favourite character are Maggie and Freddie,they both seem to know what they want from life and want to work hard to get it.All the characters are very believable and like the fact the author has continued the story of Mulberry Lane now using the younger characters.The only character I took a dislike to was Jon,I thought he was quite devious even though he was only a child My favourite storyline in the book was involving Dr Shirley her career,I’m looking forward to reading further books to see her story continue All the characters featured prominently in the book with their own storylines entwined together. I didn’t find anything about this book disagreeable,both the sto...
