The Sunrise Sisterhood
💛🧡♥️💙
Can’t believe it’s almost two years since this book (a summery slice of joyful escapism as well as an emotional drama about three women healed by the sparkling waves of Salcombe and the power of the sisterhood) came out
And this month it’s only 99p for the ebook!
See what the press said about it…

‘A gloriously pitched mix of single parenting, unexpected love affairs, a possible drinking problem and beachside yoga work together to create a summer read that is all about escapism with a capital E!’ Stylist

‘Joyfully humorous, wise and heartfelt’ Heat Magazine

‘A slice of pure escapism’ Pick Me Up! 

‘A warm read about friendship’ Fabulous Magazine

‘A wonderfully told story of complicated relationships, Cathy Bramley’s heart-warming and uplifting novel is rich, funny warm and wise’ Sunday Express

‘This joyful novel explores grief, family dynamics and friendship’ The Sun

I'm taking SOMEWHERE ONLY WE KNOW on tour!
To launch my new hardback which comes out in July, I'll be doing a handful of events around the country. Please find details below. There's one link to give you details on tickets for all of the events (except Newark, tickets aren't live yet).
Apologies as usual if I'm not coming to a bookshop near you, I can't get everywhere, it's just not possible.
However, I do hope to see as many of you as possible in July!

Tonight is World Book Night, a nationwide celebration of the power of reading!
I’m delighted to introduce this year’s selection of Quick Reads books (available from all good booksellers and many libraries).
Leila Aboulela, A New Year
Cathy Bramley, The Surprise Visitor
Fiona Cummins, A Boy Called Saul
Dr Alex George, The Mind Manual
Abir Mukherjee, A Rising Man
Cathy Rentzenbrink, Write It All Down
For me, reading’s superpower is confidence. So often we think about books when we talk about the benefits of reading, but being able to read gives me the confidence that I’ll be able to handle any situation that I find myself in. When my husband passed away two years ago, there was a lot of complicated paperwork which needed to be completed. If I had not had the reading skills to decipher all the forms, it would have made a difficult task impossible. Being able to read makes everyday life so much easier to navigate.
The aim of Quick Reads is to
⭐️ Overcome barriers to reading
⭐️ Motivate people to read a book for the first time
⭐️ Re-engage people with reading
⭐️ Increase reading confidence
My Quick Read is called The Surprise Visitor and is a celebration of the power of friendship ❤️
