A Crooked Mile,
By
This review is from: A Crooked Mile (Paperback)
A Crooked Mile tells the story of several families from Bolton, England, both rich and poor, beginning after World War I. It follows the life of Megan Duffy, a girl born to a large family without much money and focusses on her connections with family, friends, and the various townspeople as she grows older.I didn't greatly enjoy this book and couldn't really relate to the characters or the scene it was set in. The author didn't give much background on the class structure and level of poverty at that time in the UK; this would have been helpful, but I saw a five star review on amazon.co.uk so maybe I'm simply not British enough for this book...although modern British chick lit is one of my favourite genres. The book really dragged in the middle for me and I feel this is where I lost touch with the characters and didn't really care what happened to them. The three stars is due to an enjoyable last fifty pages.

This book was very well written and kept me wanting more. The reader is drawn into the lives of the Duffy family. Very enjoyable.
