About the Author:
Judy Astley has been writing novels since 1990, following several years as a dressmaker, illustrator, painter and parent. Blowing It was inspired by her inability to be sensible with money. Being a high-maintenance blonde with a serious shopping habit (frocks, books, plants and music) uses up all potential pension-funds and Judy has unfortunately failed to make any plans for her own fast-approaching dotage except to request that her ashes be scattered in the Designers Guild fabric showroom.
Review:
"A hugely entertaining novel" * Cambridge Style Magazine * "Another fluffy, fun read from Astley." * In The Know * "I loved it ... a lovely summer read" * New Books Magazine * "A fun romp ... funny and surprisingly thought provoking." * Sunday Express * "A topical, witty novel ... great fun." * East Riding News *
