PRAISE FOR KURINJI FLOWERS
“A sweeping, lush story – the depiction of India in all its colours, smells and vibrancy is pitch-perfect in its depiction. You will be grabbed from the first chapter.” The Historical Novel Society
“You would enjoy Kurinji Flowers if you are drawn – as I am – to stories of individual human relationships.” The Review Group
“A beautiful story of betrayal, love, sacrifice and redemption all framed by the gorgeous countryside of India.” A reviewer
“Kurinji Flowers is a lovely, joyful, heartbreaking novel. Oh, how I wished this story could go on and on!” A reviewer
“This is a brilliant book, Clare Flynn has recreated the atmosphere of pre-, and post-, war London and India really well – it is as if you are actually remembering it, instead of reading about it.” A reviewer

PRAISE FOR LETTERS FROM A PATCHWORK QUILT
“The story is different, original and touching. It’s interesting to read how the lives of Jack and Eliza unfold in different countries. The plot is powerful, the characters are well sketched, memorable, and their personalities will remain in the minds of readers even after they finish the story. It’s a story of love, loss and tragedy; a heartbreaking and moving tale where readers will wish to see Jack and Eliza reunited and happy together. The narration is descriptive; it also speaks about the society that existed during that age and pulls readers into the story. It’s well written and the story is not predictable, making it an engaging read.” Reader’s Favorite 5 Star Medallion
“The author has a great talent for weaving romantic and heart rending tales that give us a glimpse into life in the past.” A reviewer
“A heart wrenching and gripping story of love lost between Eliza Hewlett and Jack Brennan. When Jack is wrongly accused of fathering another woman’s child this leads to a series of ill-fated events for the young lovers, which span over a twenty-year period. From Bristol to Middlesbrough, Liverpool and America, Flynn’s evocative and beautifully crafted prose is addictive and I found myself becoming immersed and emotionally involved in the lives of Eliza and Jack.” A reviewer
“Tugged at my heartstrings from cover to cover. Exactly the kind of book I love to read. It’s a sad heartbreaking tale of consequences and unfulfilled love. You’ll cry, I promise you.” Ashley Lamar, book blogger.
“a wonderful story…If Ms. Flynn's other novels do for Australia and India in the early decades of the 20th century what Letters does for England and the United States, I will be packing my bags and traveling far from home very soon!” Book Porchervations book blog.
