I loved this book. The characters are well developed and diverse. I enjoyed how the story switched back and forth between St. John's and Brooklyn. I live in St. John's and I loved reading the descriptions of St. John's in the '20s. I plan to read more of Ms. Morgan-Cole. Enjoy!

Thanks for signing my book. Met you in Corner Brook. One of the best books I've read in a very long time. I'm in a book club and will recommend this book in September. Travelling to England in Oct and our host for a couple of nights in South Hampton is intersted in NL authors. I'm so excited to deliver this book to her (her own copy, of course. I'm keeping mine). Loved the characters, especially Ethel and Anne. Wanted to give Rose a good shake. My sister loved the book as well, and we have good discussions about the characters and life lessons. Loved, loved the book.

It is difficult to say what is best about this book. The story sweeps you along, the characters make you love them, the emotional experiences are true and touching. You will laugh out loud and cry tears for these people and their lives. Trudy Morgan-Cole does all this with her finely tuned sense of language and of voice. I will read it again and again.
