Wonderful review of THE LEGACY OF HALESHAM HALL 👇

BOOKMARKED REVIEWS

“The Legacy of Halesham Hall” is a delightful literary treasure hunt, full of secrets, riddles and trickery stretching over 20 years at the turn of the twentieth century.

A strict and cruel family patriarch and prominent proprietor of a successful boardgames business, Clement Ballingham pits his two sons against each other in a real-life game for superiority and the legacy of his thriving business and the family residence of Halesham Hall (a gothic edifice of curious architectonic design, riddled with traps, staircases leading to nowhere and horrific murals depicting female infidelity). Clement hates women because his wife abandoned him and his two sons. Clement transfers his resentment onto them. When Clement dies one of his sons takes it all while the other is banished. Twenty years later, Phoebe (the heir’s niece) arrives on Halesham Hall’s doorstep. She too has a game to play – or rather, a mission.

Absolutely love this review!!!!

Love the Smell of a Book

My Review

What a gorgeous story, this is now my new favourite from this superb author and I have already been recommending it to friends. My attention was instantly capture from when we first met temperamental Molly and I was totally absorbed in the story to the very last page. A story full of love, hope and forgiveness spanning from late 1800’s to present day.

When Molly arrives at her Grandad’s as broken and temperamental as him she has no idea of the magic that is at her finger tips and how the history of Hawthorn Place combined with her discovery will totally change her outlook on life. With three stories taking place within the one story, I was initially worried that I would lose my way, however it is so well written that it flows effortlessly. Molly was a character that I found both frustrating, yet I also empathised…

Q and A with Author Jenni Keer

Posted on by Jenni Keer

Here’s a fab Q&A I did with the lovely Fiona Jenkins ♥️

Inspired by my PMDD

1. When writing a book, do you have set times, snacks and places you choose to write?

I try to write most days, including the weekends, and share a virtual office with author pal, Clare Marchant. This makes us both accountable and ensures we check in and discuss our targets for the day. We joke about our long commute, and the fictional Margaret from accounts, who is always stealing the virtual biscuits, and are there for each other when we encounter the daily highs and lows of being an author. During lockdown, it often appeared that we were sharing the same bed, which made us giggle.

I try to write from about 8.30 until 4, but this is around part time work and caring for my elderly mum. I have my own desk but I can write anywhere, wearing anything (referencing my lockdown pyjamas), and am usually okay with background…

Inspired by my PMDD

Please give me 5 facts about you. It could be what you are scared of, favourite movie, colour, food you don’t like etc etc.

1. I was an extra in the beach scene for the Richard Curtis romantic comedyYesterday– not that you can see me. I’m a microscopic dot among a hundred other microscopic bouncy dots. Great day out though.

2. I’m part of a disco formation dance team, even though I have the grace and poise of an elephant. As I always say, what I lack in talent, I make up for with showmanship. Plaster on a big smile and let the show go on.

3. I won a fancy dress competition dressed at the TARDIS, where you had to come as something blue. My husband went as Mr Sneeze but everyone thought he was Sonic the Hedgehog. Hahaha.

4. Once, when staying at my friend’s trullo…
