One Moment, One Morning Giveaway
I have a giveaway for three copies of One Moment, One Morning by Sarah Rayner. I have heard good things about this book. I don't have a review for you as my copy must have been lost in the holiday mail. I keep hoping it will show up. I have seen some very good reviews for this book though.
One Moment, One Morning by Sarah Rayner
The Brighton to London line. The 7:44 am train. Cars packed with commuters. One woman occupies her time observing the people around her. Opposite, a girl puts on her make-up. Across the aisle, a husband strokes his wife’s hand. Further along, another woman flicks through a glossy magazine. Then, abruptly, everything changes: a man collapses, the train is stopped, and an ambulance is called.
For at least three passengers on the 7:44 on that particular morning, life will never be the same again. There’s Lou, in an adjacent seat, who witnesses events first hand. Anna, who’s sitting further up the train, impatient to get to work. And Karen, the man’s wife.
Telling the story of the week following that fateful train journey, One Moment, One Morning is a stunning novel about love and loss, about family and – above all– friendship. A stark reminder that, sometimes, one moment is all it takes to shatter everything. Yet it also reminds us that somehow, despite it all, life can and does go on.
About The Author
Sarah Rayner was born in London. She spent her childhood in Richmond, Surrey, then became a punk, spiked her hair and went to Leeds University to study English and get chilblains. She returned to London in the late ’80s, flattened her hair and worked in fashion PR for a bit, before her boss told her she was better at writing than schmoozing clients, and suggested she become an advertising copywriter.

Hopefully you're doing such a nice thing by hosting the giveway that your review copy will arrive. This book sounds great - I might be partial because even though I've lived in LA for years and years, I was born in Richmond, like the author was. Above a fish and chip shop, actually! Anyway, book sounds great. Going to have to read it, free copy or not!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a fabulous book! Count me in. New follower... Love your blog!
