The sequel to the first Darling Dahlias book did not disappoint! If anything, it was even better.

Ms. Albert sprinkled it with history of the period, as well as compelling subplots. There were new characters introduced, that I hope will make appearances in future books of the series.

Again, I was transported to that time. My mother was born in 1930, so I get a sense of what she might've gone through as I am reading. And the writing is superb--it is very evocative of the times. There was a list of the references used in the back, in case you wanted to troll through history yourself. There were also homemade cleaning tips using natural ingredients, something that I am very much interested in!

Read this book series! It will not disappoint.
