For my personal tastes, I'd probably give three-and-a-half stars; although the characters came to life, I didn't find myself relating to any of them, or caring too much what happened to them. But not everyone wants character-driven novels as I do, so from a more objective perspective, I am giving four Bookbag stars.
Further reading: if you enjoy realistic historical novels, you might like [[The River Flows On]] by Maggie Craig, [[Off the Rails by Beryl Kingston]] or [[The Tinner's Daughter]] by Rosemary Aitken.
