I loved the authors other trilogy which is also set in Liverpool so couldn't wait to read her latest book. As with her others, it didn't disappoint.

Set during war time, you really get a feel of what life was like back then with the rationing as well as having loved ones so far away.

The friendship between Alice and Millie was so heart warming. They've been friends for such a long time and was good that both had each other to help with their men being miles away. 

For Alice especially it is hard as her and Terry just got married before he was sent away with the army. Not the greatest of starts to married life. On top of that she is hit with varying other life issues which leaves her under pressure to try and do whats best for her and her family.

The Factory Girls of Lark Lane transports the reader back in time for an emotive and gripping read. As with all the other authors books, from picking it up I literally could not put it down. A story very much about family and friends and doing the best with what life throws at you. If you haven't read any of this authors books yet then you are really missing out. Highly recommended.
