Summary
Jackie loves her family. Sure, her teenage children can be stroppy. Her husband a little lazy. And providing round-the-clock care for her Alzheimer's-ridden mother is exhausting. All Jackie wants is for her children to have brighter futures than she did. So long as Martha, the eldest, gets into university and follows her dreams, all her sacrifice will be worth something...won't it?

A beautiful touching story
The book is very well performed. In the beginning I wasn’t quite sure what to think of the story but it turned out so beautifully! Made me think how thankful we should be and that life is more than just money and appearance.

I really enjoyed the audio version of this book. This really makes the story come to life. As usual, Amanda has a strong woman as the main character. Moreover I loved the Ida story line and the secrets in family.
Amanda draws you in with her hypnotic voice and she switches very easily from character to character .
deliously funny and also emotional in parts. Again nearly had me in tears with the Ida and and her daughter's melt down.
Definitely hits the heart strings

GRIPPED FROM START TO FINISH
What did you like most about Perfect Daughter?
Brilliant story about an ordinary family that I think everyone can relate to.
Who was your favorite character and why?
I loved them all, little Jonty was hilarious! But Pete comes across as lovely. Jacks is fab and her friend Gina funny, can't choose one...
Which character – as performed by Amanda Prowse – was your favourite?
Jacks. She sounded warm and lovely. I took every step with her.
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
Every woman's story...
Any additional comments?
Thoroughly enjoyed this, can't recommend highly enough. You hear it said, but I really did laugh and cry. Prowse is a natural story teller. Brilliant, just brilliant.

Gem of a story
This isn't my usual genre of book but I loved it. The reality of juggling family life on a shoestring while caring for a confused elderly mother was dealt with in a loving & sensitive way. A story of real life shattering dreams.
One of my favourite narrators, perhaps because she is the author, she did a fabulous job!
