Feedback Love Lies Bleeding by Kate Thompson

Kate - I got your book today and have spent most of the afternoon reading it (while pretending to be working!)
I think it's brilliant - the imagery and smells are wonderfully portrayed, I can practically feel the sun and the coolness of the water. It's easy to sympathise with all the characters. Sorry for going on like this, but I never really get to talk about how much I enjoy a book to anyone. I've already passed on the website to some of my girlfriends so hopefully they'll download the book too. Best regards, Nicola

I just wanted to drop a quick line saying that i finished the final chapters of 'Love Lies Bleeding' on Friday and I just loved it, it was a beautiful read. Katie

I absolutely LOVE your books, keep up the good work as i almost died between the times since the previous book and Love Lies Bleeding! Sophie

Dear Kate, Thank you so much for your prompt and very nice reply! I have 'devoured' 'Love Lies Bleeding' and feel as if I was living in your novel. Though I'm not a native speaker I could understand every emotional layer ...You are writing from the heart. Your book is so fantastic... I'm speechless.Thanks again from your 'addicted' reader, Silvia

Hi Kate

Ok, so I absolutely love your book so far, I finished the first 25 chapters on the train this morning - I'm dying to know what happens next. I was getting so into it on the train I nearly missed my stop a couple of times, which is fine on the way into work as it delays the whole "getting into the office" thing (which always ruins your day) but it sucks on the way home :0) I will pass it on - my sister would love it, it's a treasure of a read. Katie.

The phrases, 'page-turner', 'un-put-downable' etc. are hackneyed. But they SO apply to 'Love Lies Bleeding'. I really have to go out now and buy the rest of your catalogue.

Congratulations. I think you're great and an inspiration.

Hi Kate,
I finished Love Lies Bleeding at 11.30 last night. My eyes feel like I have been through a dust storm and I have to go to work but it was worth it! I loved it! My criteria for a good book is when I can't put it down, can't wait to finish it but don't want to finish and feel a sense of loss when I do finish it. LLB filled all the criteria. Thank you so much.
Love,
Kathy

Kate, I finally got to read Love Lies Bleeding. I loved it, as I have loved all of your books! Can't wait for more!!! Molly

It's nearly 12.30pm. I am KNACKERED I should be in bed. But I'm not. Why not? Because I can't leave Bianca's garden, that's why not!! Especially not now I've just found out that..... (censored by Kate.) Honestly, woman, there are more strands in this book than in a ball of extra chunky mohair - the kind that knits up on size 10s!!

Dear Kate Thompson,
I 'm in love with all your brilliant novels which I have read three times each. Now I see you have written a new fantastic novel - 'Love Lies Bleeding' - in which you combine some of your adorable characters. I'm so glad you fulfilled my secret wishes. You should be given a kind of Nobel Prize for sophisticated escapist literature! You are my 'dream-novelist'; some of the reasons are your humour, convincingly developed characters, well-constructed plots and special style. As I can see in your fan mail all your readers feel the same about your talent! Congratulation from a German reader.
Yours sincerely, Silvia

Love your books - just heard you on the radio and glad to hear that you are still writing!!! Always manage to finish the book in one sitting!!!! Cant wait to read 'Love Lies Bleeding'!!!! Regards, Ceara

Hi Kate I have just finished reading the first twenty five chapters of Love Lies Bleeding, not getting much housework done as I can't put it down, it's simply fantastic.
Can't wait to start the next chapter, congratulations on writing yet another masterpiece.

Sue

Have just finished reading Love Lies Bleeding, Brilliant!
Don't think i have ever read a book so fast, your books are impossible to put down!
I was v glad to see good old Deirdre and Rory fully back in the book and thought it was very clever how… (censored by Kate). Please tell me that you're going to write another.

Thank you for the great escape! Sarah xxx

Dear Kate, I am a huge huge huge huge fan of your work ever since I picked up The Blue Hour in the airport to read on holiday a few years ago. It was a masterpiece. I've read all of your books since and can't wait to read Love Lies Bleeding. My favourite storyline by far has to be the Rory Mc Donagh and Deirdre O'Dare affair - it had me hooked. You are an amazing writer and I want to thank you for the many times you have given me an escape from the real world. I have read all your other books - I absolutely love reading them and I would kill (not literally) to read your next one.

Your biggest fan, Deirdre

Hi Kate just wanted to say congratulations on another great book!
I started reading it yesterday morning and finished last night - couldn't wait I needed to know how it ended. I loved it, and loved catching up with all the old characters
Best of Luck with the next one, Linda

Hi Kate, Waiting for your new books to be released each time is agony, and the wait always seems longer as it takes ages for them to be released in England for some strange reason. Kate never ever give up, your books are amazing and you are definitely my favourite author. I look forward to going back to the pleasureland once I start reading the first page of 'Love Lies Bleeding'.

PS: just finished reading Pixie's book. It was so sexy and sent me into pure paradise! As I was finishing, a little card popped out advertising Pixie's webpage. I went straight to her webpage and was in my element. I so need Pixie to write more!

oh my god I have just finished the first 25 chapters of Love, Lies, Bleeding and I have never been so close to tears..... I'm praying that (censored by Kate) and that (censored by Kate) You have a talent! I love all your work Thank You so much!! Claire

	You write such marvellous novels, I love reading them, I am transported to another world. Half way through Love Lies Bleeding, the characters and the village come alive for me, I am not aware of anything around me. Your writing gives such joy, thank-you. Bernadette.

	Hi Kate, I loved Love Lies Bleeding, I really did! I love the way all the old favourites were included so we got to see how their endings worked out...as normal real life with plenty of ups and downs. And will be hoping to see a bit of 'Corinne' and Sam again! Met and exceeded my expectations! I will be keeping the fingers crossed there will be more from not only yourself but the inestimable Ms Pixie Pirelli! Will be keeping an eye out! Thanks again (",) Vanessa

	Hello Kate - LOVE YOU AND LOVE YOUR BOOKS!! Honestly, I have only recently been "turned on" to you and the only book that I have finished was Sex, Lies & Fairytales -- LOVED IT!! I am on page 197 of Love Lies Bleeding and I LOVE IT!!! I am also anxious to purchase the rest of your books. It's been so long since I have found an author that can compare with Marian Keyes and Carole Matthews. I'm so glad I found you!! Charlotte
