Review of The Orphanage Girls Reunited by Mary Wood

 


I am thrilled to be taking part in the Random Things blog tour for The Orphanage Girls Reunited by Mary Wood today. I received a copy of this book as part of the tour.


This book follows on from The Orphanage Girls which I read earlier this year. It is the second in a saga series about three friends from an orphanage in London’s East End.


It’s 1910 and Ellen finds herself abandoned for the second time by her father who takes her to live with her Grandmother in the north of England. Despite being apprehensive, Ellen soon strikes up a warm and loving relationship with her long-lost gran and starts to settle into her new home.


However, she still misses her friends Ruth and Amy from the orphanage but has no way of contacting them. Ruth has found a new life for herself as a theatre actress, but Amy has been sent to Canada with many others from the orphanage.


As the world moves towards the First World War, the lives of Ellen and Ruth will change forever, but is there any hope of all three ever being reunited again?


I really enjoyed the second book in this trilogy and I can’t wait to read the final instalment.


The descriptions in this book are so vivid and the author does an amazing job of bringing this era to life.
