Praise for Destination Dachshund: Three Months, Three Generations & Sixty Dachshunds

“A likable author makes for a likable, dog-centric travel book.” – Kirkus Review

“Fleetwood’s resulting chronicle of a multigenerational family trip—88 days, 15 countries, and 60 dachshund spottings—has an invitingly chatty tone that makes one feel like one is traveling with her.” – Kirkus Review

“I highly recommend this book to any reader who enjoys memoirs, travelogues, history, who has a love for pets, or who is just looking for a great read in general.” – Reviewed By Tracy Slowiak for Readers’ Favorite

‘Destination Dachshund is a truly delightful read with many laugh out loud moments. And it isn’t just a book about travel – even though the extraordinary array of travel experiences captured between the pages is epic. The author unpacks with warmth and humour the intricacies of family relationships, our love of pets, and the joys of travelling with dodgy-kneed grandparents. And then there’s the hilarious dachshund spotting competition. I now find myself scanning walkways and parks for these spunky little dogs.’ —  Vanessa, Sydney

“A truly engaging read that is so much more than a travel memoir. Not only does Lisa take us on her 3-month trip of a life time, she also takes us into the heart of her family. While the Fleetwood’s travel through Europe, they must also navigate their own grief. Destination Dachshund is a remarkable book – filled with honesty and humour, and the sights, smells and sounds of amazing locations. It will make you want to hug the ones you love, then book a flight somewhere!” – Sharyn, Springwood, NSW

coama_book-cover-v1-hrThe newest addition to the Bookends Publishing library: Confessions of a Mad Mooer: Postnatal Depression Sucks by Robin Elizabeth.

I am so pleased to welcome Robin Elizabeth and her heartfelt, funny, and moving memoir to Bookends Publishing. Destination Dachshund and I were getting very lonely. 😉

Confessions of a Mad Mooer is Robin’s story of her time in a psychiatric hospital after being diagnosed with postnatal depression. Coping the only way she knew how – through her writing – Robin honest and often witty blog posts from on the inside are touching, funny and bring light to a subject matter that is often swept under the carpet.

Robin’s first blog entry from ‘the inside’, the psychiatric hospital she found herself in with her newborn twins can be read HERE

Confessions of a Mad Mooer: Postnatal Depression Sucks is out in December 2016 in print and ebook.
