Well what can I say? I love historical fiction books they are one of my favourite genres.
This was beautifully written and in total sympathy for the time and the era. I did not like how the characters speech was not defined in writing so just appeared as one long sentence. Much prefer it to be defined.
Loved Emma and Audrey. What amazing women.
Emma so brave and unwilling to settle. In Ireland to be gay even Northern Ireland at that time it must have been so scary but she was totally I afraid to love who she wanted to love. Devastated for her loss though.
Audrey. Well a girls allowed to change her mind. She never really seemed to fit with Richard so I was glad that didn’t happen.
So so so sad about Betty and her family.
I also found reading about the children being evacuated was quite hard for me. Having children of evacuee age myself I can’t imagine it.
