    Gripping story - magnificent writing!

    I absolutely LOVED Postcards From Berlin. I read the whole book in 2 days while sick with the flu - What a treat! The story just flows from page to page to page making it absolutely entrancing and impossible to put down. I found Catriona to be such a likeable character and I was fighting for her the whole way through. I could feel her pain and anguish. I hope to see more from author Margaret Leroy soon!! Highly recommended!

    A Gripping Story

    I loved this book. I found Cat a very appealing character, and the story of her troubled childhood brought a lump to my throat. Right from the atmospheric opening, when carol singers arrive at Cat¿s house, the world of the story is vividly evoked. Margaret Leroy writes beautifully ¿ the book is full of delicately described detail and sensitively observed relationships, and the love between mother and child is tenderly depicted. From the beginning, there is a sense of unease, with hints that this perfect world is going to fall apart. As the trap started to close around Cat, I found myself reading raptly, completely gripped by the story.

    So so

    I felt this book had loose ends, didn't fully develop the character.
