I very much enjoyed Rosie Clarke’s new addition to the Mulberry Lane series. The author draws us in quickly to the families of Peggy and Maureen as well as their children, and there are joys and dramas aplenty. Maureen’s husband Gordon faces health challenges while her physician stepdaughter Shirley is drawn into both community work for the poor, and a budding romance. As well, Peggy’s granddaughter Maggie and daughter Fay evince interest in culinary pursuits and plan for future changes at the Pig & Whistle.

What I enjoy most about Ms. Clarke’s books is the warm sense of family, friendship and generosity of spirit throughout life crises and challenges. My thanks to #Netgalley and @Boldwood books for an advance copy of this book in return for an honest review.

I enjoyed reading this book finding out what happens to the residents of Mulberry Lane. This book lets us find out what is happening to the younger people as well as the older ones. I was not disappointed and look forward to the next one. I do recommend that you read this book.

Book 8 in the Mulberry Lane series and it was like catching up with old friends. Reminders of previous situations and history of the characters very cleverly written within the thread of the story. Loved reading about Peggy and her family after the war years. Love this series and would recommend if you enjoy a great family saga.

Another great book in the series. Lots of twists and turns and as usually happens the last chapter had me in tears and longing for the next book in the series! The series has moved through the war years and onwards and it's nice to see references to news items such as the Munich Air Crash mentioned. As the years move on I'm sure many readers will remember some of these things happening in their lifetimes.

Rosie's books are always so well written, easy to read with a great storyline. I would have no hesitation in recommending her and her books to anyone!

It was lovely catching up with the characters of Mulberry Lane. It always seems like a lovely place to live with everyone helping and supporting each other through good times and times of hardship. Another lovely book with love and heartbreak. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book.
