I thought this book may have been a sequel to Eddie's Home for Strays but it is the same book with two different titles so please refer to my review for the other title.

Edie’s Home for Strays/Orphans is such a delightful story. Whilst I rarely read War time stories, this one caught my interest because of the blurb and gorgeous vintage cover. This is a heartwarming story set against the backdrop of WWII Britain. It is rich in likeable characters, beautifully woven descriptions and believable realities. The sadness of the consequences of War are outweighed by the hope created of giving people and animals a second chance, building family from those around you and allowing moments of happiness to shine. This is a very special book that is heart centred and restores your faith in others. Really enjoyed it and highly recommend it.

Thank you to Gracie Taylor, Avon/ Harper Collins and NetGalley for the Advanced Reader Copy. I am voluntarily reviewing a complimentary ARC and all opinions are unbiased and my own.

Thanks Netgalley for allowing me to read this book. Edie was able to get a job as a land girl. She had hoped to help during the war,but couldn't because of a medical condition. She meets a lot of inreresting people in the small village. This book was well written.

Well I’ve spent a good few days wondering how any review I write for this book will be good enough!

I have to start by saying this author is multi-talented and I literally think capable of anything.

This is definitely one of my favourite books of this year so far! I haven’t been able to put it down.

As always, the author has pulled me in and created a wonderful read which has been easy to devour! This has been worth the wait (and I feel like I’ve been waiting forever).

This is a great book with loveable characters. I absolutely cannot wait to read more.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
