The Happy Ever After eBook : Maura-Cooper, Betty: desertcart.co.uk: Kindle Store Review: Heartwarming, heartbreaking. Thestory of a family and a century. - Not having read The Family from One End Street, the story from which this book is a development, I wondered if I would enjoy it, but I am so glad I read it. It’s the richly heartwarming, sometimes heartbreaking story of a large working-class family, its triumphs and disasters and all those moments in between that make up family life. At the same time, it tells the story of the century and, although it begins just a little before my time, it brought back many memories of how it felt to live through those years. A gentle book, but one with real depths. Review: Great read - Thoroughly absorbing story with very real characters. I particularly like this period of history and the changes that families experienced during and following the Second World War. Written with warmth and insight. I have never read any of The Family From One End Street books but now feel I would like to.

I am in the habit of reading mystery books but this book gave me a delightful respite. I shed a few tears and laughed out loud at times. It was a refreshing change from my normal choices.
