Another one of Anne Bennett's classics, I couldn't wait to pick up this book after reading all the amazing reviews. The book was engaging as I cried and laughed on numerous occasions and after each page I couldn't wait to read the next. Having said this I feel towards the end the story was dragged on, and the ending could have been better - It was a bit abrupt. I wasn't even sure the book had ended until I saw the acknowledgements. All in all I am really pleased as I felt myself empathising with each character, and even annoyed at the different situations. Danny boy was also very informative and I now know more about how difficult it had been during the war. Good on you Bennett!!
