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 www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DB8T9MZK01 Jan 2025 14:43 +0000at://did:plc:j5ndg4ey4hato7sbxzmtrozx/app.bsky.feed.post/3leoscnhll22xhttps://bsky.app/profile/elainewhiteford.bsky.social/post/3leciehda622hWriters are so grateful when people take the time to post a review.

How lovely to hear. Random feedback is fab! So thanks, ladies, and I hope you enjoy it.

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 #scotland24 Nov 2024 12:50 +0000at://did:plc:j5ndg4ey4hato7sbxzmtrozx/app.bsky.feed.post/3lbp2bkqtek2hhttps://bsky.app/profile/elainewhiteford.bsky.social/post/3lbeudwth7c2fThis review makes me wonder which of the Spice Girls my main characters most resemble!
