Sarah Hargreaves

People rave about this book and to be honest I don’t get it.

I wouldn’t say it’s bad, but I wouldn’t go and tell the world and his wife that they need to read it. The difference in their social class and social standing is well observed, and following that shift as they grow up is interesting. And on some level I found myself relating to both characters for different reasons.

I read it quickly but I wasn’t desperate to pick it up.
