Reviews

"Carys Bray's words are filled with the most incredible tenderness and wisdom, and every character is so rich, they each become a story in their own right. The Museum of You is beautiful and clever, and honest. I loved every moment of it"
*Joanna Cannon, author of THE TROUBLE WITH GOATS AND SHEEP*

"Wonderfully honest and moving ... communicates with skill the overwhelming power of loss through the mouths of ordinary people in ordinary situations, making her observations all the richer"
*The Times*

"It is funny, earthy, truthful; and beyond that, it is bold … [Clover] is an utterly convincing child, an optimistic realist … her story and hinterland come to life with exceptional energy."
*The Guardian*

"The Museum of You had me laughing, weeping and reading late into the night ... poignant and uplifting ... it's a confident second novel that never strays far from real life - and one that assures her a very bright future"
*Stylist*

"In less skilful hands, this could easily become mawkish or sentimental. But Bray’s talent is her understated emotion and wry humour … it is in the relationships between parents and children that Bray’s prose becomes luminescent … Wise, moving and tender, [The Museum of You] confirms Bray as a perceptive and sensitive storyteller"
*Observer*
