Cassie Steward writes rich, character-driven fiction that explores family, relationships and secrets. Her debut novel, Number Thirty-Two, became a TikTok sensation, praised by readers around the world for its emotional depth and memorable characters. Before writing, she worked as a celebrity make-up artist, a job which took her around the world meeting amazing people and seeing incredible places. She now resides in Cheshire and is writing her third book.
I saw this book advertised all over social media, so Cassie did a brilliant job of getting it out there. I had a book voucher for my birthday, so this was what I got. I loved reading this so much that I did not want it to end. I think I read it all in a weekend. One of the best books I have really enjoyed.
Two women and their children who live next door to each other form a friendship that lasts throughout their lives. Secrets, heartache and life in general are hard at times, but they survive in their own way. Until death pulls them apart, where they cannot get past it for many years.
This story is superbly written for a debut book. I am looking forward to reading more from this author as I think she will turn out brilliant books.
This will be my book of the month for July.
