I have just finished reading Small Island and it was defo an amazing read. I loved the switching between characters and time frames. Andrea Levy has an amazing ability to make you love all the characters in the book, when I was reading Queenies pieces about Bernard I really did not like his character, but then after reading Bernards perspective I came to empathise with his characters alot. If I have one criticism, it would be the end. I felt that Hortense should have discovered the link between Queenie and Michael. Would have been an awesome ending. Highly Recomended! Sweetie

I read the resurrectionist a while ago. I found that it was interesting in terms of its historical content, but felt the story itself was pretty dead (no pun intended). I think you should give it a try anyway, it is a rather short book and some parts were good. Sweetie
