I loved Sitting Tenant!! After reading Frankie and Dot, I couldn’t wait to find out what Rosie had in store for her second book. I wasn’t disappointed. With experience Rosie Radcliffes’s style has gained depth and richness and she has highlighted difficult and serious issues with insight, empathy and humour. Her characters are multi faceted and skilfully drawn and the plot held me from beginning to end. I loved it. Read it - you won’t be disappointed!
This is a joyful, engaging and beautifully written story, with the power of love, friendship and learning to be your true self at its core. Well written and compelling, a definite recommended read.
