The Halfpenny Girls at Christmas by Maggie Mason

Happy publication day!

• 

As Christmas approaches, Alice, Edith and Marg continue to face hardships growing up on one of the poorest streets in Blackpool. Penniless, their friendship has helped them survive this far, but it’ll take more than that to see them through the dark days that lie ahead…Having read the first one in the series I was very excited to have an opportunity to read this one.

Although it’s not quite Christmas, it didn’t make any difference as I was captivated by the story telling, and I did take this to read on a recent trip to Blackpool… Which was a magical journey seeing the places in the book.Highly recommend this for fans of Mary and Maggie. I was unable to put this down, I couldn’t stop myself from wanting to know what was going to happen next, what could possibly go wrong and if there would be a happy ending… I cannot wait for the next installment…
