sarahsponda's review against another edition
Miss Benson is like an inanimate object who just lets things happen. I get that she had a traumatic childhood but I don't want to wait around and wait for this prissy stick-in-the-mud to learn what friendship is. The overall SO QUIRKY! tone didn't help, especially when horrible things are happening to the characters, like being stalked by a misogynistic former POW with untreated PTSD; the book has all these feel-good blurbs, guh.
Regardless: Juliet Stevenson is an excellent narrator.
Moderate: Bullying, Miscarriage, and Misogyny
