5.0 out of 5 stars
A work of Art,
By Sean Patrick Reardon (Boston, Massachusetts, USA) -
This review is from: Tollesbury
I have been entertained by many a good read, but what I truly enjoy, the
reason why I read, is to be emotionally moved. A truly good piece of
writing stays with you after the last page has been read and makes an
impact on the way you view not only the world around you, but yourself.
TOLLESBURY TIME FOREVER is such a story. The product description caught
my attention and after reading the sample chapters, I could not buy it
fast enough. There are sentences, paragraphs, and passages within, that
are better than entire novels I have read. During the course of the
read, I had to make the decision to keep moving on rather than
re-reading the beautiful prose, because the story was so good, I wanted
to finsh it. A catch-22 for sure, but I knew I would be revisting the
story again.Along with the excellent writing and story, there are plenty of twists and turns you will never figure out, and it all builds up to a tremendous ending. From the first page to the last, I was engaged, entertained, and most of all emotionally invested. As a reader, I could not ask for any more! |

Tollesbury Time Forever,
Tollesbury Time Forever - what a cracking read! A roller-coaster journey into the mind(s) of a troubled soul, which terrifies you one minute, mystifies you the next and then has a tug at your heart strings for good measure. Wonderfully written, well paced with a strong, original and emotional story line. The detailed description of characters, places, feelings and thoughts really bring this book to life from the outset - if you like books that you find difficult to put down, you'll absolutely love this one! Great job! |

Flawless perfection,
By Rosie This book has taken me completely by surprise. I don't know what I was expecting, but it wasn't this. I kept having to remind myself that Stuart Ayris is a fairly new writer, yet he has produced something that many of greater experience would be extremely proud of. It is beautifully written, the language, pace and storyline are completely gripping from the offset. The descriptive element of this book is first class and I found myself going back to re-read passages that really struck me. I have no doubt I shall be reading it again. He brings Tollesbury and it's characters alive for you and you are right there alongside his poor troubled character, Simon Gregory, as he battles his demons and comes to some realisations. Stuart portrays what goes on in this man's head with such clarity, and I think I am right in saying that his past work in the mentally challenged sector has given him this insight. He is indeed a clever man and writer to have understood it so well and bring it to life for us all. There is absolutely nothing in this book to be negative about. There is no fault to find whatsoever. It needs to be in hardback and on library shelves very soon. |
