Its well researched and well written and I found myself caring about her characters -- Rosie GoodwinWill resonate with saga readers everywhere...a wonderful, uplifting story -- Nancy RevellAll the ingredients for a perfect saga and I loved Meg; shes such a strong and believable character. A fantastic debut -- Emma HornbyGlenda has an exceptionally keen eye for domestic detail which brings this local community to vivid, colourful life and Meg is a likeable, loving heroine for whom the reader roots from start to finish -- Jenny HolmesI found it difficult to believe that this was a debut novel, as "brilliant" was the word in my mind when I reached the end.
