Space Hopper (EXTRACT)

Granted this is just the opening sample - but it's brilliant. Totally captivating, believable voice. A genuinely intriguing mystery & I have a feeling the novel will touch on themes of loss, mother-daughter relationships, the demands of a complex family life & the secrets we tell ourselves & our loved ones. I'm also thinking it will be extremely funny too! So excited to find out what happens next.

This is gonna be absolutely brilliant book. The blurb makes me think it will be unlike anything I've read lately. The theme of mother and daughters relationships is something that is often only background of the book and combination this with learning how to let go of the past sounds like really powerful book.
I can't wait to read it!

I hadn’t heard much about this so decided to request the extract instead of the full book and after inly a couple of pages I’m hooked, I need to know what happens, how does she see her mum? I need to know!!

A superb extract: original and compelling. I look forward to reading the whole novel. This short extract does what the opening on any captivating book should do and it is sufficiently intriguing to make me want to know more. I have the whole novel to read and this is on my 'pile' of virtual books to indulge in. I feel confident that I won't be disappointed given the success of this extract.

I’ve had the privilege of reading both this preview and the full ARC. Thank you. 

A story of a woman who has found a way of visiting her mum who had died 30 years previously. Yet this is no ordinary story of time travel and barely crosses into the sci-fi genre as, above all, it is a story of hope and love after a lifetime of loss. 

Helen Fisher has beautifully and rather wittily narrated a journey across two generations, bringing with it love, laughter and also despair. From the start to the end, the events, the little twists and heartfelt prose make this an emotional rollercoaster! 

Such a clever story, so cleverly written. Would definitely recommend.
