I listened to this book because I saw it recommended on youtube, a small book that packs a punch. A girl is fostered by an extremely caring and wholesome family, the Kinsellas, while back home her struggling mother is giving birth to yet another child, piling on top of her existing struggles. It doesn’t take much time for the girl to adjust to the idyllic Irish farmgirl lifestyle, helping to fetch the water, racing to beat her own time fetching the mail, and accompanying the Kinsellas to church and get togethers. Hidden somewhere behind all the idealism is a secret, carefully revealed – making the characters both extra lovable and heartbreaking.The book isn’t much of a commitment at sub 100 pages, and it sticks around in your mind forever.
