Release Blitz, Review and Giveaway: Confessions of a Chatterbox by Abigail Davies

Release Date: November 8, 2018
Cover Design: Pink Elephant Designs
Confession One: I was a self-confessed chatterbox.
Words were my best friend.
They loved me almost as much as I loved my pajamas and unwashed hair.

Confession Two: I hated outside people.
I was happiest sitting on my sofa, my favorite show in the background, and my laptop open while I worked.
Being my own boss was freaking awesome.
So why the heck had I accepted this new teaching job on campus?

Going back to the sunny state was the last thing I wanted to do.
It was only meant to be for one day—one talk.
But life had a funny way at throwing you for a loop.

Confession Three: I was the best secret keeper.
It was ironic considering I never stopped talking.
But I’d do anything for my best friend.
Until him.

Confession Four: I’d never met anyone like him.
He was different, but not in the way that everyone else viewed him. 
He made my heart stutter and my breath catch.
But worst of all, he made my words disappear.

Ella has her life how she wants it. She works from home on her own business, her cousin is dating her best friend's brother and moving to New York because if it. But let's talk about her best friend... He's gay, and she serves as his beard. For two years she's pretended to be his girlfriend and no one knows.


Ella gets offered a teaching job at her Alma mater in LA and meets JJ, an autistic student at the college. She is instantly smitten. He seems to like her too. But Ella needs to straighten her life and feelings out.


I had a few issues reading this. It is sweet and fun, but I was feeling weird... I think that JJ's character came off a little too child like at first, and I had a hard time moving past that.


BUT - overall a good, fun read. Go ahead and one click and see for yourself.

I'm not sure how I can describe this book. I liked it but it definitely veered in a direction I did not see coming.

Ella is the cousin to Violet (whom we met in Confessions of a Klutz) that lives in New York. But visiting her alma mater back in California presents a job opportunity she didn't see coming. 

We had snippets of JJ in Confessions of a Klutz too. He is autistic and likes things just so. Just like Ella, who is very OCD with cleanliness and organization. These two form a tight bond.

So what happens? Will Ella stay in LA or head back to New York? Definitely one click now to find out.

Abigail Davies grew up with a passion for words, storytelling, maths, and anything pink. Dreaming up characters--quite literally--and talking to them out loud is a daily occurrence for her. She finds it fascinating how a whole world can be built with words alone, and how everyone reads and interprets a story differently. Now following her dreams of writing, Abigail has found the passion that she always knew was there. When she's not writing: she's a mother to two daughters who she encourages to use their imagination as she believes that it's a magical thing, or getting lost in a good book. If she's doing neither of those things, you can be sure she's surfing the web buying new makeup, clothes, or binge watching another show as she becomes one with her sofa.
