How to Build a Boat

 by Elaine Feeney

You get the impression as you read this that Elaine Feeney may well have built a boat at some time in her past.

This book is about a lot of things other than boat building though. It is about grief, growing up on the spectrum, single parenthood, relationship breakdown, abuse and misogyny in the catholic church and more. In fact, although I enjoyed this book its weakness is that it tries to deal with too much and feels missing something as a result. Definitely an author I would read again though 6/10
