Book Review: The Drowning School by Dawn Rowe




Here is the moral of not judging a book by it's cover, I was nominated by my best friend to read this book and post a review on Amazon, which I will do at some point.
I am a keen reader and writer so naturally I am a good source for a fair judgement

When the book arrived I looked at the cover and thought oh dear not another vanity published and dreadfully written book to read with stupid typos and 'word of the day' complicated words that no one knows what they mean.

For me a good book should be easy to road, flows, relaxes and allows me to float away to another place..
In short this book did that!

Yes I found the odd typo and spelling mistake we are all human after all but it was indeed a nice book.
The book is filled with lust, romance, magic and a wealthy homosexual and sets scene in mountains of AndalucĂ­a and Glastonbury Tor ' Avalon'
The main characters are Evan who's unwilling summer holiday ends him AndalucĂ­a with his estranged father while his mother who was repeatedly beaten and raped by his father tries to get her life back on track.
Evan's strong emotions about the past and his fathers constant failings push him in the directions of the other main character Benita but when a tragic event envelopes the sleepy community and a woman drowns in her swimming pool, Evan finds himself haunted by her and has to discover the key to setting her free to rest.

A recommended book for light hearted reading...
