Absolutely cannot wait to deep dive into Homecoming soon in the Hissy Fics
I love this novel and would have loved it if it were 3 times as long. I absolutely loved the fact it’s set in Australia; I know ‘those colours and smells, that quality of the light’ I loved the sense of homecoming and belonging, the exploration that home is a ‘feeling, a sense of being complete’ I loved the classic Kate Morton; the gothic estate and family secrets and mysteries; ‘Nora, Polly and Jess and their acidic family secrets’, the mother/ daughter relationships that feature in her novels. Guilt and culpability are here too of course! It wouldn’t be a Kate Morton without it, and the sense of guardianship of the truth..I loved the book love that is littered throughout these pages. I know that feeling of carrying a new book ‘under her arm’ I know that kinship you feel when meeting ‘likeminded book lover’, that sense of shared history because you’ve loved the same novels..We know ourselves by the stories other people tell and that was just so well explored between these covers.
Thank you SO much for the opportunity to read an early copy Allen and Unwin, I completely felt like I had won the lottery!!!!!
