“A book made from a series of interviews captured by the author in London.
A good idea to write down people who live, work and visit London. But after a while I found myself rather bored by it all.

“Another memoir! This is about Luke Jennings growing up in Sussex and how he gets hooked into fishing.
It’s more than this of course and brings a story of growing up as a boy in the sixties, everything had a slower and more innocent pace about it in Sussex in those days.
I bought my first fishing rod from the very same tackle shop. This memoir was shortlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Tear award

“I was lucky enough to be meeting and introducing this author at an event. Not only is she a very good author but a poet too.
This is her story, which she narrates on the audiobook herself and does a fantastic job.
Jackie is seeking out her birth parents and takes us along for the ride. It’s not written sensationally but very honestly, this said not sentimentally either.
I thought it a great read, couldn’t wait to meet her and ask her lots of questions.”
