Huge thanks to NetGalley and the publishers, Headline Tinder Press, for making this audio-ARC available to me in exchange for a fair and honest and review. I found the pace of the story which follows the rhythm of the gardening calendar, paralleling crop growing, slow and steady then fast and furious!

We understand that a cash bar is available at Foxash Social Club serving a wide range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks to hirers and their guests. The Land Settlement Association (LSA) was a UK Government scheme set up in 1934 to re-settle unemployed workers from depressed industrial areas, particularly from North-East England and Wales. And a considerable part of the success of 'Foxash' for me is Alex Dunmore's performance of the audiobook. But more than that, 'Foxash' is the story of the female body growing; women's fertility; women's connectedness of spirit within the rural idyll. She was the first to have achieved four certifications in saddle fitting from three different countries and has quite literally travelled the globe to soak up knowledge on the subject.

It was a pleasure to listen to such a wonderful narration of this evocative story about Lettie and her husband Tommy.Lettie and Tommy arrive in their new home, next door to Jean and Adam who are already well established. With a selection of saddles from a multitude of suppliers, she is not a sales rep nor a brand ambassador. However I just felt that none of the ideas ended up being executed in a satisfying way for me and I just felt really disconnected from the writing and characters throughout.
