A review by bookishwithjules
Yours from the Tower by Sally Nicholls
4.5
Tirzah, Sophia, and Polly are truly the sweetest best friends I’ve read about in a while. They truly care for each other and you can feel the love through these letters. It felt so much like a sisterhood.
The writing was actually perfect, having this book written purely in letters was something I did not think could be done so well. Clearly, I was mistaken. The narrators for this audiobook did amazing in portraying a range of characters and emotions. Chapter 49 might have been my favorite chapter in the whole book. At first I thought the repetitive nature would get old, but I found myself laughing at one point but then feeling sad because I really felt Tirzah’s anger and sadness through the narrator!
This book reminds me a lot of Little Women of it were written through letters between the girls. Polly and Mr. Thomas remind me of Natalie and The Prime Minister from Love, Actually, and Tirzah reminds me of Anne Shirley from Anne of Green Gables.
I had a really fun time listening to this audiobook! It was fun, it made me giggle, it made me sad, but I loved it! I’m usually not into historical romance but this was just so sweet and perfect.
Thank you NetGalley and RB Media for providing me with an early release audiobook in exchange for an honest review.
