Media Reviews
Painfully real and utterly heartbreaking, every page will leave you an emotional wreck but, ultimately, this is a wonderfully uplifting novel about mothers and daughters * Lisa Jewell *
This book is hugely loving, devastatingly sad, and yet oddly hopeful. It's suffused with the care and love families can feel for each other when they are facing the worst tragedy. Claire's fate is irreversible, her disease is terminal. Yet the surprise twist at the end is joyous. -- Richard Madeley * Richard and Judy Book Club *
[a] tender, inspirational book -- Judy Finnigan * Richard and Judy Book Club *
wonderful...a beautiful book, very moving -- Marian Keyes
I can't tell you how much I loved this book. It did make me cry but it also made me laugh. Like Me Before You by Jo Jo Moyes, I couldn't put it down. A tender testament to maternal love. -- Katie Fforde
Author Bio

She juggles writing novels with raising her family which includes a very lively set of toddler twins whose main hobby is going in the opposite directions. When she gets the chance, Rowan enjoys sleeping, sitting and loves watching films; she is also attempting to learn how to bake. Rowan would like to live every day as if she were starring in a musical, although her daughter no longer allows her to sing in public. Despite being dyslexic, Rowan loves writing, and The Memory Book is her eleventh novel. Others include The Accidental Mother, Lessons in Laughing Out Loud and the award-winning Runaway Wife, a novel which lead Rowan to become an active supporter of domestic abuse charity Refuge, donating 100% of royalties from the ebook publication of her novella, Woman Walks Into a Bar, to the charity.
