Review by Kelly Lacey

Home, the new novel by Penny Parkes, is a deeply moving and heartfelt story of self-discovery. Through Anna’s struggles of foster care, heartache, and seeking her place in the world, the novel is filled with heartfelt emotions, memorable characters and beautiful scenery that is sure to make you feel inspired and in awe.

It’s a journey of courage, determination, and overcoming adversity that proves no matter how difficult life gets, the one thing that makes everything better is family and having someone by your side to lean on.

Overall, Home is an outstanding and captivating read that’s filled with humour, nostalgia and inspiring messages. An absolute must-read for anyone looking for a powerful and engaging read that is sure to stay with you for days.

A gripping and heartfelt story about overcoming the past and finding where you belong.

Anna Wilson travels the world as a professional housesitter – stepping into other people’s lives – caring for their homes, pets and sometimes even neighbours. Living vicariously.

But all Anna has ever really wanted is a home of her own – a proper one, filled with family and love and happy memories. If only she knew where to start.

Growing up in foster care, she always envied her friends their secure and carefree lives, their certainty and confidence. And, while those same friends may have become her family of choice, Anna is still stuck in that nomadic cycle, looking for answers, trying to find the courage to put down roots and find a place to call home.

Compelling, rich and evocative, Home is Anna’s journey to discovering that it isn’t where you settle down that matters, but the people you have around you when you do.
