I would be very interested in reviewing this.

 

[sdmhred]

Yes, me too! I would love to read it and review if the offer is still available 😀

 

[katemason]

Yes, I would love to read and review this book. Additionally, my 16 year old daughter who is studying English language and English Literature will read and review as it is not the sort of book on the reading last but her tutor thinks it would be a valuable / enlightening read and good experience to write a review.

 

[HarrietD]

Thanks so much @Nankle, @sdmhred and @katemason - great to hear you're all interested in reviewing this

Also @katemason, that sounds like a brilliant idea for your daughter to read and review it too.

Everyone who's interested: please email magazine@alzheimers.org.uk and the team will be able to let you know if copies are still available. If you do read it, I look forward to hearing what you think!

 

[sdmhred]

Did anyone hear back? I had an auto response from the magazine team…but I haven’t heard anything else…

 

[HarrietD]

Thanks @sdmhred - the magazine team will be contacting people as soon as they can

Unfortunately as they only have a limited number of copies, they won't be able to get back to everyone who's commented, but I hope those of you who do receive a copy enjoy reading it!
