Review of The Pearl Button Girl by Annie Murray

 

Ad-PR


Today is my stop on the blog tour for The Pearl Button Girl by Annie Murray.


Ada Fletcher grows up in a loving family, but when a series of trade dies strike her siblings are taken away into a workhouse.


Ada works hard at a local Pearl button factory in Birmingham and is taken in by a neighbouring family. However, the Connell family have little money and too much reliance on alcohol.


Ada decides to move out and start a life by herself. Will she be reunited with her family?


I really enjoy Annie Murray’s books, she is so good at sweeping you right back to a different era. This was no exception and the Victorian era was vividly brought to life.


Thank you to panmacmillan for sending me a copy to review.
