The most personal book from the renowned author of the landmark feminist treatise The Female Eunuch When her father died in 1983, Germaine Greer realized how little she knew about him. What had happened during World War II to make this charming but distant man draw a "curtain of silence" around himself? Why had he never spoken of his family? Why had he never shown her the love she craved? In this deeply moving book, Greer tells of the impassioned search she made for the truth about her father--a search that led her to a new understanding of herself as well. Her quest lasted three years and took her from England to Australia to Tasmania, India, and Malta; through scores of genealogical, civil, and military archives; and into the memories of the men and women who may--or may not--have known Reg Greer. Yet the heart of Greer's narrative is her own emotional journey, as the startling facts behind the fa ade her father had constructed force her painfully to examine her own notions of truth and loyalty, family and obligation. Praise for Daddy, We Hardly Knew You "A big, bold book . . . Ferocious psychic need and volcanic energy drive this combined memoir, detective story and travelogue from first to last."--The New Yorker "Riveting."--TimeBinding Type: Paperback

Dreamy
Format: Kindle
This was such a fun read! The story is full of quirky characters, witty dialogue and intriguing drama..... all wrapped up in steamy chemistry. Savanna and Kyle's meet cute and subsequent romance doesn't follow the typical " and they lived happily ever after" script. This makes for a story with interest twist and turns. You know the author did a great job of bringing the story to life when you're left with the feelings of, " I want to live in that town; I want to be part of that friend group. This story did that for me. Bravo!

Sweet second-chance romance
Format: Kindle
When You Smile was my introduction to Melissa Brayden’s writing, and Dream a Little Dream confirmed that this author creates lovely stories with amazing characters.
This book was a sweet second-chance romance with enough sad moments to make me shed some tears.
It also has a surprise reveal that I didn’t see coming and a small-town community that made me feel warm and cozy.
I loved Kyle and Savanna. Their first meeting nearly got me giggling, but I was definitely kicking my feet and smiling like a fool.
Savanna was endearing and had a knack for public announcements. I felt deeply for her and truly understood her reaction after getting hurt. As for Kyle… is there a word to describe her? I could feel her aura bleed through my screen. Her flirting and ability to get through Savanna’s defense left me swooning one or two times. I honestly don’t know how Savanna managed to stand on business so 10 out of 10 for her effort.
I really enjoyed Dream a Little Dream and can’t wait to read another Melissa Brayden’s book.

Wonderful
Format: Paperback
This was a hard book to put down. The characters of Svanna & Kyle are so well developed, as our their families and friends, who just enhance the whole story. When Savanna is left on the bridge, my heart broke, was amended later, and fulfilled by the end of the book.

Dream…
Format: Kindle
I loved this book right from the get-go. The snappy repartee between Savanna and Kyle made me laugh and shiver with delight all through this book. Toss in all the great characters in Dreamers Bay and I was sold! Wonderful story, great plot twists, fantastic highs and lows. A true smorgasbord of emotions. Thanks Melissa…

Loved this book so much
Format: Kindle
First, it’s a cute story with a great themes of: younger older woman, daughter‘s friend, disgruntled with family. I have to admit every time the main character was talking to her father I was so incredibly annoyed. It brought up all the conversations I’ve ever had with misogynist in my life. Definitely well written.
On happier notes; the love story, the meddling neighbor/landlord, cute child, and kittens! Really, what story isn’t made better by kittens?
Seriously this is an exceptionally well written story with fantastic characters, plot lines, and a great ending.
