I loved the Tobacco Girls

The characters were brought to life and I grew fond of the 3 friends, such a lovely read and Anne Dover is just right to narrate this series. Sad it’s finished and hope their adventures will continue in more books?

Absolutely loved these books

And I will admit to shedding a tear. Having binged all six in a week, I feel quite bereft. Beautiful narration. A story that tells of how it was for those amazing people who went through and survived. Highly recommend

Finale the tobacco girls

Is this really it? Surely more could follow on with the lives of their children as they grow… I don’t want it to end! Great narrator as always in Ann Dover. Zipped through this as it was so enjoyable and not so much recapping of previous books which was great.
