BROOKLYN - DEPRESSION ERA - GANGS

What a way to start her life in America.

Golda was accompanying her sister Esther to America because she was pregnant.

Esther died in childbirth on the boat trip over, and Golda was left with the baby and Esther‘s husband.

What was Golda going to do?

A lovely read about family and the sacrifices we make for each other.

The characters came to life on the pages, each with their distinct voices, struggles, and dreams. I loved them and cared about what happened to them. I liked how the story was told through the different perspectives of Ben, Golda, and Morty. This let me get into their heads and learn of the hardships they each endured and appreciate how complex the author made these characters and the story itself.

You will find what happens in this beautiful, heartwarming read with characters you will love and a story line you won't want to end. 

Tissues needed at times. 

♥️ LOVED this book.  5/5 ♥️
