And don’t worry if you are not a fan of Oz. If you’ve never read the book or watched the movie, it won’t impair your enjoyment one jot. But I think Oz lovers will enjoy the parallels and the imagery, from the obvious to the more subtle. I look forward to book club chats with readers where we can tease these out in person!
As with all my books, despite my many months researching the issues in this novel, I’m sure that there are some errors. All mine! Please forgive me for any that jar.
And so lovely reader, it’s time for me to say goodbye and let you meet Greta and her friends. Some of you have been with me from the beginning, other readers I’ve picked up along the way. But all of you are in my heart. Every time you get in touch, reviewing a read on Amazon or Goodreads, find me on social media or via my website for a chat, come to see me in person at an author event, you give me a gift. You really do. I hope you enjoy My Pear-Shaped Life and take it into your hearts.
Happy reading,
Carmel
I am convinced that the only people worthy of consideration in this world are the unusual ones. For the common folks are like the leaves of a tree, and live and die unnoticed.

It isn’t what we are, but what folks think we are, that counts in this world.
The Road to Oz, L. Frank Baum
Greta walked into the kitchen rubbing her eyes. She smiled her thanks to her mam, Emily, who placed a mug of dark brown tea in front of her. The Gales all drank their tea the same way – brewed or, as some might say, stewed.
‘Sleep OK?’ Emily asked.
‘Like a baby,’ Greta replied.
‘You didn’t take any more of those sleeping pills, did you?’ Emily’s forehead wrinkled in a frown.
‘Give over, Mam. I only take the odd one when my insomnia gets out of hand. I keep telling you that,’ Greta said. Her mother worried way too much. Greta had taken one the previous evening, as it happened, but there was no point worrying her mam admitting that. When it came to her parents, some
