Synopsis:

Even as a five-year-old, little Lizzie Hobbs was being moulded to fulfil her cockney mother's thwarted dream of stardom and fame - the kind of fame that would some day lead to a Command Performance before the Queen. At her countless auditions, wearing make-up, frills, a huge red bow in her peroxided curls, it was obvious that she was the bizzare product of her mother's ambitions. But then she did have a remarkable voice, a star quality of her very own. And by her twenties, Lizzie had her own BBC show, success on Broadway and in Hollywood and all the glamorous trappings of a world-wide superstar. Yet her private life was a turmoil of failures and frustrations, of helpless imprisonment in her mother's dream. Lizzie had to escape-in the only way possible…

The Bookworms Mission:

We strive to reduce unnecessary landfill by taking used books, second-hand books, paperback books, hardback books, pre-loved books, great reads and recycled books and then redistributing them throughout New Zealand, Australia and the rest of the world. Readers can connect online with book titles, helping them find new homes, and support reusing and re-loving books that are affordable. At Bookworms you’ll find cheap books, hidden gems and even some lost treasures. We have a passion for sustainability, being eco-friendly, eco-conscious and we aim to incorporate that into all that we do.
