Thanks Amanda, you interview well, and it was great to hear how your research for the book developed.
Thanks, Janice. I’m glad you enjoyed listening 🙂
Wonderful conversation. The background research to the novel was so rich and interesting. Bravo!
Many thanks for this, Robyn 🙂
The interview inspired me to purchase the novel and I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it, more than any other book I’ve read in a long while. Beautifully written, Amanda.
Thank you for this lovely feedback, Claire 🙂
