review 1: This book was very good! I enjoyed reading it because it was a fast read but still very entertaining! In the book a young girls mom dies and while her dad tries to figure stuff out, she goes to live with her grandparents out in the country. She has an older sister that is not happy about it. While she is living with her grandma, she finds a man that is magical, but sorry to say you will have to read the book to find out the rest. This is a book that I very much enjoyed, and it is in our library. Honestly there wasn't anything that i didn't enjoy, so it is great.

... moree a disappointing follow-up, not because of the writing, but because of the subject matter. Yes, it's my old bug-bear; 'magical realism' - and in this case it really didn't work for me. I thought that the local folklore was maybe a little too localised for the book, it was a tale that I was totally unfamiliar with, so couldn't really engage with it.There is no doubt however that Sally Nicholls has a beautiful style of writing and this will not put me off reading any more of her books, in fact I'm really looking forward to the release of 'All Fall Down' in March - set in Yorkshire during the Black Death. less

Perhaps 3.5 stars. It's a clever book but a bit sad all through until near the ending.
