I don't read much, but someone passed Spitting Feathers on to me and I was hooked. It took me just two days to read it and that just doesn't happen to me - so it must me great!
A fine tale that readers will enjoy.

Once she completed photography class, Tao Tandy headed to London expecting to take the big city by storm. A few months later, she remains unemployed crashing at the flat of her friend Sophie. However, things begin to look up when Sophie gets Tao a job bird sitting a Congo African Sir Galahad whose septuagenarian owner Adrienne Audesley is going to Portugal for two months. Tao will live in exclusive Hampstead.Her luck grows when she also scores a photography job involving American TV chef Taylor Wiseman, whom she begins seeing. However, she finds herself attracted to Adrienne's gardener, Chris who one moment is her best pal and the next her most odious enemy even as she bonds with Sirg.SPITTING FEATHERS is an enjoyable London chic lit tale that is fun to follow due to the interactions between Tao and the support cast including Sirg, who at times seems like the heroine's significant other (birds of a feather?). Tao's relationships with her mother is filled with frustration, with her friend's two roommates irritation, with Taylor romantic boredom, with Sirg's loving and finally with Chris spitting feathers as she wants him but he disturbs her. This is a fine tale that readers will enjoy.Harriet Klausner

I could not put Spitting Feathers down and finished it in two days! I really enjoyed it. The chemistry between the leading lady and her feathered friend was just charming. The characters were well-thought out and very easy to relate to. I can highly recommend this book for holidays or just for enjoying with a glass of wine. Well done Kelly!
Excellent read!

Tao Tandy is like so many real girls out here, wanting to make her way in life, and if she gets a bit of luck along the way, well great for her. Her luck comes in the form of a surprise break into the photography business,a great home because she gets on with parrots, and a good looking neighbour. However, he's not interested in her, or her in him. It's the cool American TV chef that Tao's got her eye on, but is he as great as he seems? It's a good story, a fast read, and a lot of fun.
