Winner of an uncorrected copy of A family of Strangers announced!!

 
 
Once again thank you to everyone who entered my giveaway. This giveaway was only for readers of my blog (it wasn't advertised elsewhere) and although I didn't get the usual hundreds of entries I did get more than I thought I would. So thank you to everyone who reads my waffling on about books. It's good to know I'm not just talking to the void. 😀

The giveaway closed on the 31st March 2022 and the winner was randomly selected (using Random org). 


Congratulations to........   Penny
 

The winner has been notified and has seven days to provide a mailing address.

 Please look under the giveaway tab for more chances to win great books.

My next giveaway coming soon is for a copy of  The Poinciana Tree 


The Poinciana Tree follows the life of a brave and sensitive woman who never stopped caring for the people she loved. Aimée’s life stretched far and wide across Australia, though rarely to places of her choice. Wherever she went she found people to love, and delight amongst heartache.

The Poinciana Tree is told in two parts, first through the lens of Antony’s mother Aimée, portraying the sadness and loneliness of a young mother’s life in the vastness of Australia during and after the war. As Aimée’s life spans across Melbourne and Brisbane so does the author’s telling of her history, taking us through her idyllic marriage before the war and back to her lonely and at times isolated childhood in the West Australian Goldfields.

Following the tragedy of World War II, the second part of the novel takes us to post-war Brisbane as Aimée, now a penniless widow, brings up her two young sons.
