This book; is somewhat long, but you don't dare put it down!!! More diversified than her other books and really a good read. You're ion suspense most of the time wondering what in the world will happen next. Really a good, absorbing read.

This is the 3rd volume of the Bride's Necklace trilogy and is probably the best of the 3. They're all really good, but this had more adventure.

Entirely different from his other books, but a wonderful read. We've all met Kinky in his other books and now know her full history. A really good read, as are all his books.

All her books are really great reading...good plots, clean, wholesome, "real" people in their current situations. She's Great Britian's answer to our Debbie Macomber!!

I had read this book about 75 years ago and never forgot it. My copy disappeared over the years and I was so glad to get my paws on this one. This has to be one of the best books ever about growing up, especially in long-ago Brooklyn. Recommended reading for anyone that loves people. Her Joy in the Morning is awfully good, too. Both books are both real classics. There are two more out there that I haven't ead but will try to find copies. They are Maggie Now and Tomorrow Will Be Better.
