It’s a day for curling up with a good book. Scottish historical fiction with girl power, anyone?

Happy New Year! Scotland’s Hogmanay was a bit of a washout. But today’s rain and wind make it a perfect day for getting stuck into a Scottish historical novel. Set in Stirling in 1900. #histfic #scotland #stirling #quebec #childmigration

Writers are so grateful when people take the time to post a review. Especially one as lovely as this. It's also great when people read outside their usual genre and enjoy it. Thank you very much this reviewer of The Rescue Sisters. #booksky #histfic #stirling #quebec #historicalfiction #bookreviews

“Brilliant book, I couldn't put it down! A wonderful book based in Stirling and Quebec in
1900. Fast moving storyline tracing the difficulties faced by destitute children along with the people, who tried to make their lives easier. A great read.” Thank you, Rhoda, for your review. #booksky #scotland
