Amazingly powerful writing. It took my breath away. The pace and depth of the detail and quality this work shows is fantastic. Normally a sequal does not measure up to the first.However this book overshadows its first by far. The emotive writing that was shown in 'Corner House girls' is carried through into the second book. The passion the characters show fulfills all imagination. Every loose end is carried through or tied up, leaving no room for doubt as to how the reader wants each character to develop. These wishes are not all fulfilled but the story benefits from these changes and grows, if possible, even stronger. A great read, again and again. When will another be produced to carry on the story of these much loved characters.
