My Thoughts

A New Dawn Over Mulberry Lane by Rosie Clarke is the eighth novel in The Mulberry Lane series.  I recommend reading this delightful series in order.  It will allow you to get to know the characters and the storylines.  Eight years have passed since Stormy Days on Mulberry Lane ended.  It is now 1958 and the food rationing has finally ended.  We return to Mulberry Lane where the younger generation is now making plans for their futures.  Peggy and Maureen are busy with their businesses and families.  The Pig and Whistle does a bustling business each day as does Maureen’s store which her husband, Gordon runs.  Peggy and Maureen also have their cake shop.  Shirley, Gordon’s daughter, is graduating from medical school and she will be returning home to practice locally.  An illness has Fay rethinking her future.  Freddie, Fay’s twin, needs to decide what he wants to do after school.  Peggy is surprised when Maggie, her granddaughter, expresses interest in working at the pub.  Maggie proves quite adept at cooking and has ideas to improve the pub.  The new generation is growing up quickly and has plenty of ideas but are Peggy and Maureen ready to let go of the reins.  

I enjoyed reading A New Dawn Over Mulberry Lane.  I have read every book in the series and each one if better than the last.  Peggy and Maureen have dealt with so much over the years.  The trials are not over yet.  I like how everyone pulls together to help each other out on Mulberry Lane.  This is a well-written series with developed, friendly characters.  Peggy is a woman with great fortitude.  She is the lynch pin for the lane along with her husband, Able.  There is plenty going on in this saga. I am glad that this story focused on Peggy and Able plus Maureen and Gordon plus their children.  We do get to catch up with the others, but they are not the focus this time around.  A New Dawn Over Mulberry Lane is one of those books that you do not want to end.  I enjoy catching up with the characters from this engaging series. We get to follow the various characters as they go about their daily lives.  A New Dawn Over Mulberry Lane is a charming tale with struggle, loss, love, friendships, grief, health issues, change, perseverance, hope, dreams, and endurance.  A New Dawn Over Mulberry Lane is a story that will leave you smiling and eager for the next installment.  

A New Dawn Over Mulberry Lane is available from Amazon*.  You can find the other seven novels in The Mulberry Lane series here (books one, two, six, and seven on Kindle Unlimited).  You can find Rosie Clarke's other novels here.  You should check out War Clouds Over Blackberry Farm the first book in the Blackberry Farm series (on Kindle Unlimited).  Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope I have helped you to find a new author and series to read (maybe more than one).  Tomorrow I am featuring Murder at a Scottish Social by Traci Hall.  It is the third A Scottish Shire Mystery.  I hope you have jolly good day.  Take care, stay safe, and Happy Reading!
