Sixpenny Girl

by Meg Hutchinson

Saran Chandler sees her mother and baby sister sold by her evil stepfather, Enoch Jacobs, and only escapes the same fate herself when Enoch falls into the canal and drowns. She is determined to reunite her family, but has no money or friends—until she meets Luke Hipton, and they build a life and business together in a miserable Black Country town. She comes into conflict with the local depraved businessman, Zadok Minch. He wants both Saran and her property, but when she discovers that he was the man who bought her family, she vows undying revenge.

It was really good. I really Love Meg Hutchinson.

It was just ok. Found this book hard to follow.

[Suzi Johnstone]

Really persevered with this book, I just found it hard going, with the dialect, and the storyline, gave up on it I'm affraid.
