Summary

Lori Belkin has been dumped. By her parents. They moved out while she was away on holiday, and now, at the tender age of 25, she must stand on her own two feet. While she’s getting to grips with basic adulting, Lori magically brings to life the super-sexy man she created from celebrity photos as a teenager. Lori learns very quickly that having your ideal man is not as satisfying as it ought to be and that being an adult is far harder than it looks.

Snowflake is a story about prehistoric pets, delinquent donkeys, and becoming the person you want to be, not the person everyone else expects you to be.

A totally mad cap adventure with some laugh out loud moments and amazing escapades. Lori comes home to find everything has changed and she now has to live in the real world. Having to stand on her own two feet brings chaos, a bit of magic and some great characters. I never knew what to expect next with this book, but it was good hearted fun and an enjoyable few hours.

Fun and madness

It took me a while to get into this book and I must admit , to like our heroine! But I’m soo glad I did! It became a delightful comic romp through art, magic, mythology and life as Lori grew up and became an all round adult. Heide Goody and Ian Grant have a quirky style of writing that I find very enjoyable. Although I expect it’s not for everyone, I imagine their fans are as devoted as I am. My only reservation with this audiobook is that I would have preferred to actually read this book rather than listen to it. Nothing really wrong with Diana Croft’s narration, but I’d have preferred to go slowly with the intriguing multi twisting threads of the story.

Fun fun fun.

I like these authors and if you haven't tried their Clovenhoof series you really should. This book is not in that league but is nonetheless a silly but enjoyable listen. The premise was good- what do you do if you get home from holidays to find your parents have left and you are newly homeless and without any means of support. This was the situation for Lori.
As she navigates the real adult world there are touches of magic in her life that don't always help.
There were some really good bits in this book, but there are bits that drag or feel overlong. Lori seems very young for her age and very immature. She is also not that likeable.
The people around her are a mixed bag and not all of them worked that well for me.
The narrator was ok but she had a limited range of voices and it was difficult at times to tell characters apart.
Overall a 3.5 Stars from me.

A bit silly and frivolous but good fun and funny.

If you want a light-hearted, funny audiobook to help you take your mind off stress, look no further. Snowflake is a prefectly amusing distraction that will often have you laughing out loud.
Mayhem and some magic surrounds Lori as she tries to come to terms with the fact that her parents abandoned her: she is forced to grow up and become a fully functioning adult at the age of 25! The road ahead is bumpy; it's not an easy task for her to understand and survive the everyday life but she tries hard. With more or less success. Well, to be fair, more disaster and less success in the beginning that's for sure.
This audiobook is brilliantly narrated by Diana Croft and it's almost as hard to put it down as it is to find the exit in IKEA.
I would highly recommend it to old and new fans' of Heide Goody and Iain Grant's writing.

I started this book at work...warning if you have to concentrate on a job do not start this. You will not be able to concentrate. Some of the one liners got me completely off balance. The Bounty line was definitely one of my favourites.
I’ve enjoy other books by these authors and honestly if you need a pick me up go pick one if theirs.
Twistedly funny, can’t go wrong.
Lori finds herself ousted by her parents and has to fend for herself. She has an amulet that becomes her go to item, a new job, erm a new man, honestly can’t do this justice.
Read or listen. Go go...read or listen
