BOOK REVIEW THINGS CAN ONLY GET BETTER BY DAVID M BARNETT

For elderly churchwarden Arthur Calderbank, there’s no place like home. His home just so happens to be a graveyard.

He keeps himself to himself, gets on with his job, and visits his wife everyday for a chat. When one day he finds someone else has been to see his wife – and has left flowers on her grave – he is determined to solve the mystery of who and why. He receives unlikely help from a group of teenage girls as he searches for answers, and soon learns that there is more to life than being surrounded by death.

Set during the 90s, when we were all just common people believing things could only get better, this is an uplifting story about the power of a little kindness, friendship and community.

Firstly a big thank you to Alex at Trapeze for my copy to review. This is a new author to me which i love exploring as a book blogger.

What a glorious quirky tale set at christmas in the 90s.

A story of love,loss,hopes ,dreams and friendships. Friendships that form in the unlikely places with unexpected people.

Each character has a story to share .

Brilliantly written,heartwarming and life affirming.
