Florrie is a soulful and timeless tale of women, love, and women in love. This story offers a glimpse into our older relatives' youth, revealing that they were more like us than we might think. It teaches us that as we grow up, we are less alone than we may ever know.

It was nice to read about women’s football in 1920s.
Florrie’s interesting life story is discovered by her great-great niece in this empowering graphic novel.
A cool graphic novel with good messages and an engaging storyline.

As a genre I am really enjoying the non fiction graphic works coming out at the moment, I find them a clear cut way to explain events and feelings without dumbing down or getting bogged down in loads of research.

Being interested in WW1 history, women's history, and women's sport, this book appealed to me on so many levels even before there was the great Norfolk setting.

I loved this book so much and have already been recommending it to my football fan friends as well as any one who loves Norfolk.

I really liked the format of this book as it makes it more reader friendly for a range of audiences. It tells the story of Florrie as she becomes a footballer in secret at a time when people were turning against the idea of women playing football. There is some suggestion of why, e.g. jealousy of the big crowds the female game were getting. Florrie manages to go to France, giving her father a different reason, and while she is there she meets and begins to fall in love with a French lady. I liked that the main messages of the book were integrated throughout rather than flagged up in a very dramatic way. The story just quietly progresses after Florrie's nephew finds artefacts in the loft and realises how little he knew of her story.
