BROKEN HEART CLUB... YOUR VERDICT!

Readers share their reviews on my brand new book BROKEN HEART CLUB... have YOU read it yet?

Ruby says:
BROKEN HEART CLUB was so inspirational and beautiful! One of the reasons I loved it so much was the theme of moving on... a subject I can relate to quite a lot. I also liked the focus on the transition from primary to secondary school, which I went through last summer. Like Hasmita in the book, I was going to a different school to my friends but I soon made friends and (unlike Hasmita!) kept in touch with my old friends too. I've even written a story myself, also based on new beginnings. I met Cathy on her book tour recently and got my copy of BROKEN HEART CLUB signed, which was brilliant. It's a very emotional book, and towards the end I cried - lots! I have read a lot of Cathy Cassidy books and what can I say... I love them!

I just finished reading BROKEN HEART CLUB yesterday and it was AMAZING!!! It is my new favourite book!! I loved the characters and the different viewpoints... it was almost as if there were lots of stories and they all linked together to make a whole. BROKEN HEART CLUB has an unexpected twist that turns everything upside down... that's all I can say, but you will love it! There is a theme of origami paper cranes running through the story, as the characters make paper cranes to try to make a wish come true. I decided to try to make a paper crane myself, the first one I have ever made - I was quite pleased with how it turned out! The book really grabs the reader in, right from the very first sentence, and keeps you hooked all the way through. I would definitely recommend it.

I've just finished BROKEN HEART CLUB. It's a great book, so sad but uplifting, and I could not put it down. I liked all the characters, they were so well written, especially the members of the Heart Club. This is why I am still a fan around a decade after I started reading Cathy's books... good writing deserves merit. I'd like to write a longer and less disjointed review, but I'm scared I will ruin the surprise for those who haven't read it yet, and I don't want to do that. There is huge twist in the tail with this book. I'm sending a pic of my adorable kittycat with the book... she loves it too, it took me ages to get her to look at the camera instead of the book!

  5. I haven't read this book and only found out about it two days ago!!! I was so so so shocked that I had not realised that Cathy had written a new book so as soon as I saw it I immediately put it on hold from my local library, but it hasn't come yet and I am so so so impatient! I have read the extract a billion times and everyone keeps saying the ending is so emotional I so wanna know! Though I guess I'll just have to wait!!! But I know one thing for certain: This book will be truly AWESOME just like all of Cathy's other bookS! <3
