The Museum of You by Carys Bray

A delightful story that is a pleasant read for many genres.

This is a delightful, heart-warming and feel-good story, which tells the story of 12 year old Clover Quinn, an only child and the relationship between herself and her single-parent dad, Darren. Clover has been brought up by her father but now, one summer, as she is growing up from a child into a young adult, she begins to realise other factors in her life and commences to become increasingly curious about her mother, who she was, what she was like and so forth and decides to embark on this route by using her mother’s personal items that are stored in a bedroom in her home. Clover is also re-assessing her relationship with her father and the story describes this loving relationship and the struggles that her father has had to cope with.

The book is well written and also written in third person which gives the story a more realistic feel. The story itself is lovely and will keep the reader’s attention throughout the whole book as the relationship between Clover and her father unfolds.

A book to cover many genres but a definite must-read!
