pickWritten in snippets before and after WW1 we learn of a young mother's need to give her baby to her parents to raise as her brother due to societal expectations. The author's note at the back shed much light on a time frame I rarely read in historical fiction- WW2 is much more common, in my opinion.
so-soQuick Blurb: Set just after the First World War, 19 year old Margot finds that her fiancee, who was missing in action, has come home. How does she tell him that her parents new baby is actually hers - and his?
I liked the attempt to show the attitudes people had to unmarried mothers in this book, but the 'should I tell him I shouldn't tell him' trope quickly became monotonous.
