"Thomas' writing doesn't merely describe a sequence of events, it is much deeper than that, and it is that which I think really sets it apart from that of so many writers. I really found it extremely moving." Bill Goodall - Bill Goodall Literary Agency

"I think you've got a winner there. Reminds me very much of Nick Hornby's writing." Anne Gillion, ASG Editorial

"I am an avid reader, but this book honestly blows all the other books I have read recently out of the water. This book is one I will be raving about to friends, family, and colleagues it is amazing." Chantel-Hall Reid - Publishing House Executive
