Wtf, you have me sobbing reading this. Effing goosebumps. And I'm sorry I keep swearing. Just gimmie this book already 😭 Okay, but seriously... dreams are so incredible right? I love that you can feel her presence in your life so abundantly. I hope you always do. 🧡

If there was ever a time to believe in people being in the after life, or living upon death, this would be it. This is such a beautiful tale about your grandmother and it really has led me to believe in things such as signs from loved ones who are no longer here etc.

Joyce was and continues to sound like an incredibly unique woman with a one of a kind heart. I adored You, With a View when I first read it (it became my favourite story instantly) and it also made me think of my own nan and granddad who I miss terribly.

This has just made me even more excited to read the story again. I’m glad Joyce is with you.

Thank you so much for reading and for your kind words! ❤️ I have no doubt that your nan and granddad are with you in some equally magical way.

What a beautiful tribute to a woman who sounds incredible, and who MUST have been incredible to have such an influence on the incredibleness that is you. I already love your book in a way that cannot be quantified or contained, but knowing more about the woman who helped inspire it makes me love it even more.
