“Margaret looked at the ring on her finger. "Gran gave me this before we boarded the ship. It's the most special thing in the world to me. I'll never take it off, Hanna. No matter how hungry I am.”
― The Dressmaker's Dowry
― The Dressmaker's Dowry
“the marble really heavy? And fragile?” She tucked a wisp of her blond hair behind her ear. “Oh yes! We had to pull some strings. But Walter is a close”
― The Dressmaker's Dowry

“Hanna reached for Margaret's hand, knowing nothing she could say would bring comfort. Margaret would never see her grandmother again. Nor would Hanna see her Oma, who had wept when Hanna boarded the ship for America, waving goodbye for the last time. Only the elderly and frail were left behind. And letters from home were not the same as a warm laugh or a cup of tea shared on a cold day.”

“For a week now, I've walked past the HELP WANTED sign in the window, trying to work up the courage to step inside. I hear Tony's voice in my head.
You don't need to work, Judy, You're my wife.
But Tony isn't here to stop me.”

I know how it feels to miss characters (I have missed several from books that I've read, and had to remind myself they weren't real people). If you ever visit San Francisco you can walk the streets that Hanna and Margaret walked, and think about them. :) I very much appreciate your kind review. Have a great day!
Just finished "The Dressmaker's Dowry" and want to let you know that I think it is the best debut novel I have read! You really tied the two eras together very well and the story is totally engrossing! I was anxious to find out what would happen next, but now that I've finished the book, I miss the characters! I was fortunate to receive an Advance Reader Copy from your publisher in exchange for my review. I've posted the review here and will also post it on Barnes & Noble and Amazon as soon as they accept reviews for your novel. Thanks so much for a great read and congratulations on a well written debut!
