The Book People, an organisation that delivers books to those unable to visit book shops, has reviewed Tracey Corderoy‘s Just Right For Two…

… “Heart-warming and gently told, Just Right for Two is a wonderful picture book that is just perfect for shared bedtime writing.

From a team comprising award-winning author Tracey Corderoy and talented illustrator Rosalind Beardshaw, the book follows the story of Dog, who is happy and thinks he has everything he needs in his big blue suitcase. But when he makes friends with Mouse, he realises that life is actually richer and more fun when you have a friend.”

Another fantastic review for Tracey’s ever growing list.

A dark, bold literary novel about two estranged brothers brought back into each other’s lives by their father’s disappearance – and the emotional, moral and physical reckoning that follows.

Two estranged brothers emerge from long periods of isolation when their father goes missing. Alike in appearance but sharply divided by experience, the brothers are forced into proximity as they search for the elderly man across Gran Canaria.

Nick is a priest, a man shaped by a violent criminal past and sincere religious conversion, while Gary is a former basketball player whose heightened energy and volatility signal a manic episode brought on by bipolar disorder.

As they navigate seedy bars, churches, beaches and volcanic landscapes, the search becomes something deeper: a confrontation with memory, masculinity, faith and care. Their father’s dementia haunts every step of the journey, destabilising the idea of authority and leaving the brothers to negotiate responsibility between them.
What emerges is a deeply humane novel about male bonds – messy, funny and tender – and about what it means to love someone when certainty has disappeared.
