A Tree Grows in Brooklyn & Maggie-Now by Betty Smith
5.0
The name of this novel has always been in my consciousness. I think my dad must have read it when I was young. I'm so glad I finally got round to reading it myself.
I found the characters to be real, flawed and likeable. Although the family know dreadful poverty, they are rich in love, imagination and resourcefulness. I'm going to miss them.
