Media Reviews
Praise for Dot: 'Dot is a moving, passionate novel about the connections between families and how we repeat and re-live the mistakes of the past. It made me think about what it means as a woman to both to have and to be a daughter, mother and grandmother' Emily Mortimer, star of Doll & Em 'An emotionally compelling and deeply moving novel - I loved it' Daisy Goodwin 'Beautifully written; [Dot] is lyrical and haunting, whilst also being sad and true. It is a completely compelling read with a very satisfying plot. It stayed with me for a long time after reading' Dolly Wells star of Doll & Em 'Araminta Hall is an exceptionally talented writer... A thoroughly enjoyable read' Carol Birch, author of Jamrach's Menagerie 'This is a powerful tale about the negative effects of paternal irresponsibility, yet ultimately how string female friendships overthrow the damage done by it. Stunning' IMAGE MAGAZINE 'Mixing melancholic home truths with uniquely British humour. This is a deeply moving triumph' STAR MAGAZINE Praise for Everything and Nothing: 'An assured debut... I suspect that this will be the first of what promises to be a new genre: the nanny chiller' Daisy Goodwin SUNDAY TIMES 'Chilling and suspenseful' THE SUN's 'Best of 2011' book picks 'An unsettling, menacing read' GRAZIA, 2011 Reading List selection 'A suspenseful and emotive examination of a family in meltdown...a skilfully executed debut novel' WATERSTONES BOOK QUARTERLY 'A beautifully written, completely gripping novel that plays on the unsettling notion that sometimes the least safe place is your very own home' Emily Mortimer
