A review by loobaileybooks
Mrs England by Stacey Halls
5.0
I’m so very late to the party with this one I’m pretty sure the party is well and truly over. It has sat on my tbr shelf for far too long but I’m so glad I finally got around to reading it (thanks to a bookstagram buddy read).
A really interesting story written with Stacey Halls’ usual skill & great characterisation where we follow Ruby May from her graduation from the Norland College of children’s nursing through her first placements, the second of which is for the rather dysfunctional & unnerving England family in the depths of Hardcastle Crags in Yorkshire. It’s an inspired eerie setting & together with the ghosts of Ruby’s traumatic childhood clashing with gradual revelations of the England family’s present life it makes for a gripping read.
