Up the Pier | Helen Cresswell
post image

After just reading a very mediocre (in my opinion) thriller (Every Vow You Break by Peter Swanson 😐), I‘ve opted for an old Puffin that I‘ve picked up on my travels.

Ten-year-old Carrie goes to a seaside resort in 1971 Wales during the off-season for two weeks and finds a family on the pier that no one else can see, a family that seems to be stuck in 1921.

I‘m more “in the woods” right now than “up the pier” as you can see but … 😆.
