This was a good easy read that I enjoyed and would recommend to fans of historical fiction..it is set I. Ireland and the characters are good.

Enjoyable read. Good storyline and likeable characters.

This is an old fashioned big book with lots of characters and a good dollop of history. If you aren't familiar with Ireland between the Easter Uprising and WWI, this is a good place to start. Dolly isn't always the most likeable character but you'll admire her grit. Same is true for Alice, who looks like she has it all on the surface but really doesn't. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. It's a big book but one which satisfies.
