quite factual rather than story based. I have experience more encompassing stories than this one but that said it is quite a nice heart warming listen.

I have utterly loved all three of the Rosie Hopkins series. The characters and the location are wonderful, and you see a different side to some of them in this third book. The series as a whole is definitely one of Jenny Colgans best, I remain ever hopeful for a fourth?! The narrator was first class, couldn’t fault them.

A fabulous listen!
