A Wigwam for a Goose's Bridle

Review of the new novel by Jessica Dettman

This Has Been Absolutely Lovely is a story about family, particularly parenting. As a mother of two, it resonated with me that your life is completely changed when you become a parent, especially a mother. But you remain you, human, a person with needs and desires. This book is pleasantly written, at times funny, and reasonably heart warming by the end. It did take me a while to get in to but I’m glad I persevered.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC in return for my honest review.
