The Secret of Nightingale Wood by Lucy Strange

geegee_74's review

2.0

I really wanted to like this book and it was fairly enjoyable. However, it did feel as though the author was trying to copy te elements of a children's classic without putting enough of her own style into the telling of it, and this left me feeling detached from the narrative and protagonist.

Utterly sublime! If I could give this book more than five stars I would.

I do love a Junior book that could be written for adults as much as the intended age group.

Given a chance I would have given it 3 1/2* as no one questioned what was in the wood.

A tender, heartfelt exploration of mental health and grief set against the backdrop of post-World War I England.
