The book gets into the story very quickly and the reader is drawn into the lives of the main characters. In the first few pages the author has given an outline of their lives as well as getting right into the story. I hadn't heard of Josephine Moon prior to reading these first pages of Three Gold Coins but the short extract is enough to tempt me to get this book and her previous ones. The first chapters leaves readers wanting to know what happens next and carry on reading. This is definitely one to add to your reading list.
