I received a copy of this book via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. 

This is the sequel to the book Dear Mrs Bird which I read a couple of years ago. In this story we are once again following Emmy Lake as her life progresses during WWII. This story mainly concentrates on Emmy’s promotion at her work for People’s Friend magazine. Although I enjoyed this story it didn’t engage me quite as much as Dear Mrs Bird. I came to realise what I loved about the first book was the letters to the problem page and the friction between Emmy and Mrs Bird. There is a lot in this book about Women’s working rights during the war and it is something that I had not given any consideration to until I read this book. Readers do not need to worry about having to read Dear Mrs Bird first as the author has done a really great job of reminding the reader of the relevant events from the first book.
