This started off well, I enjoyed young Dolly’s early life and school day’s, then it just went downhill.  It was repetitive and dull. We were told a lot but shown nothing, I felt we never got to know any of the characters, just a bland telling. 
I usually love books set in Australia during this time frame but this one let me down 😐
