Review of Marie Jensen's 'Dragons and Butterflies #2: War With Her Father'

In this brilliant second book of a six-part series, Jean Ridgeway's ongoing battle with her domestic abuser develops into a psychological, and sometimes physical war. But as Jean reaches adolescence, she also has to deal with evolving family relationships, boyfriend troubles, school issues, deceit, jealously, heartbreak and tragedy.

In the central conflict between Jean and her abuser, there can only be one winner. Jean strives for her goals of happiness and safety, but in the end, her very physical and mental well-being come under threat, as her visions of the future become as heart-wrenching, as her experiences of the past and present....

'War With Her Father' is a hugely compelling study of family relationships at their most dysfunctional. The book also serves as a fascinating dissertation on adolescent mental health, made all the more engaging, by the fact that it is based on a true story. The second chapter and epilogue are amongst the most powerful pieces ever written on the subject.

Review of Marie Jensen's Dragons and Butterflies: Just Like Her Father

Here's my review of 'Dragons and Butterflies: Just Like Her Father' by Marie Jensen, which leaped on the first day of its release to UK #1 Kindle School-Age Bestseller, and has stayed there ever since;

'Often hilarious, sometimes heart-wrenching, always touching. You will be rooting for Jean Ridgeway, as she battles her domestic abuser, and her own fears with the help of her friends. This wonderful childhood tale spans the UK and the 1960's racial hotbed of Singapore, and is made all the more engaging by the fact that it is loosely based on a true story. The tale is the first in a series of six novels, charting Jean's colourful life. Marie Jensen has delivered plenty already, and the remaining volumes in the saga promise much more.' STEVE STONE
