We hope you are having a wonderful summer!
The best way to increase your vocabulary is by reading, and listening, as much as possible.
And, if you are looking for a riveting read this summer, and to improve your extensive reading skills, I would strongly recommend my sister's debut novel, A Proper Mother, which has just been released!
The novel is a poignant chronicle of life as a mother and a wife, and portrays the protagonist Frankie's life, punctuated by events involving her youngest son, Michael. The relationship with her son is fractured by Frankie's own feelings of inadequacy induced by her controlling husband, and the inescapable binds of motherhood.
It is completely unputdownable and, in a nutshell, an absolute must read! https://oneworld-publications.com/work/a-proper-mother/
But don't take my word for it – it is one of the Guardian's thrillers of the month! https://www.theguardian.com/books/article/2024/jun/11/crime-and-thrillers-of-the-month-review-stephen-king-will-dean-isobel-shirlaw-lucy-foley
