I don’t know what it says about me, but when I read a book like this—filled with village life, crafting clubs, ๐งถ eating cake, and drinking tea ☕ —I want to be right there in the heart of it all This is despite the fact that I don’t particularly like “real people” and very much enjoy my own company!
Jessica has the knack of enveloping you in whatever world she’s writing about, and Tomorrow Starts Today is no exception. ๐ I totally wanted to join Yvonne’s crafting club, chat to Trevor the parrot ๐ฆ, and go for long walks around the Lakes, ๐ถ♀️๐ฟ what an idyllic part of England to live in!
I loved the second-chance romance ๐, the friendships, ๐ค and the new challenges this book brought. It’s full of hope and optimism, and the reassurance that there is a brighter future out there for all of us. ๐
Thank you to Boldwood Books and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review Tomorrow Starts Today by Jessica Redland. ๐
About the Book
It's never too late to find yourself... ๐ซ
When she unexpectedly loses her husband, Yvonne Kellerman's world turns quiet and grey. Five years on, her days are filled with the gentle chatter of her loyal parrot, Trevor, and the comfort of her crafting table—but she can’t shake the feeling that life is slipping her by and Yvonne feels lost and lonelier than ever.
When she joins the local crafting club at Willowdale Village Hall, Yvonne expects nothing more than a few afternoons of sewing. Instead, amongst the other local crafters, she discovers friendship, laughter and a renewed appreciation for her gorgeous Lake District home. It’s a reminder that she isn’t alone and, with each new stitch, her confidence returns, and so does her belief that it's never too late for fresh starts and new beginnings.
When a familiar face from her past reappears, Yvonne finds herself standing at a will she protect her heart, or embrace the chance to love—and truly live—again?
I write uplifting stories of love, friendship, family and community set in stunning Yorkshire. My Whitsborough Bay books take readers/listeners to the North Yorkshire Coast and my Hedgehog Hollow books transport them deep into the countryside of the Yorkshire Wolds.
My books are about real people living real lives. You'll find plenty of warm and fuzzy moments between the pages but you may occasionally find yourself tearing up and reaching for the tissues. I love my characters so, no matter how tough the going gets, I make sure they get their happy ending. Of course, with a series, it may take a few books to fully get there!
My favourite subject at school was English and I always loved the aspects of my day job in HR which involved writing but I never considered writing a novel until my manager told me that my business reports read more like stories and joked that I should write a book. As soon as a plot idea presented itself, that’s exactly what I did.
