There's a great review for Being Light by Helen Smith over at Big Al's Books and Pals. He has also posted it to Amazon:

"It is unlikely Being Light is anything like any book you’ve read before... I’ve read all of Smith’s books that are available for the Kindle. Each time the same things stand out for me. The plots are original, inventive, and (quick, find another word for quirky) idiosyncratic. But it is the characters and the humor that draw me in."

RE: Reviews for Being Light

There's a lovely 5* review for Being Light on Amazon:

Helen Smith has so many ideas, and they are crammed into the story - I was folding the page over every time I saw an idea that I liked, just so that I could find it again. My book is now completely dog-eared because there was so much that I read and thought "That is so clever" or just as likely "That is so beautifully written, and completely true!"

The thought of folding book pages over shocks me, but apart from that, what a lovely review.

Thanks, Linda. I never used to make notes in the margins of books or underline passages, and I certainly never folded the pages... but now I have a Kindle I do use the notes facility. I like being able to do it without damaging the book.
