New Book! New Book!
Today is the debut of our new novel Sometimes A River Song! Congratulations to author Avril Joy for writing this beautiful, important novel about the domination, strength, and triumph of women.
Listen to what Kate W. has to say on Goodreads: “There are many perks to being a book blogger, especially being contacted by publishers with titles you might not otherwise discover. All this is to say thanks to Linen Press for sending me a copy of Sometimes a River Song by Avril Joy in exchange for an honest review. When I began reading this short novel and was introduced to the strong and distinct voice of protagonist Aiyana Weir, a young woman living in a river boat community in Arkansas in the 1930s, I was hooked immediately. Her voice was so melodic, her less than perfect English, compelling. The book follows the story of Aiyana and her life with an abusive father in a close knit community. The odd one out in the family, and rumoured to be the child of another man, she has never been allowed to go to school like her brother Lyle, and sister Hetty. She develops a fixation on learning to read in an attempt to gain her independence and free herself from the brutality of her father.” (read her full review here: http://www.katejwilson.com/2016/04/book-review-sometimes-river-song-by.html)
