Best BookTrail of September

Best BookTrail of September

The book chosen for September’s booktrail award took even me by surprise. Yes, I know! It’s an author I love but a book I didn’t think I would. Why? It’s based on/ inspired by a  Greek myth and I struggle with these sometimes. This book however has convinced me that I was wrong and this book has won me over.

So, without further ado..

BookTrail of the Month

This has won my heart as well as the award of Best BookTrail of the Month…

 

Literary Locations of Once A Monster 

Once a Monster – BookTrail review

Greek myth retold in the style of Dickens but with added marvels.

There’s so much to love about this novel. The scene setting is to die for! – We are thrust into the trade of the mudlarkers who search for buried treasure on the banks of the Thames. Nell is one of them and she stumbles onto a body – Minos – who is barely alive. She brings him back to health whilst others want to rob from him
