Another interesting book about the Scottish lumberjills. This was a lovely book to read. It was light-hearted and humorous at times. I loved all of the characters and found out more facts about the war work women did.. l do recommend that this book to be read by everyone who wants a interesting, informative book . Thank you for letting me read it.

The author creates strong images of a freezing cold climate in the Highlands of Scotland during the WW2. Working in a remote forest as part of the Women’s Timber Corp, the unruly group of lasses are gently coerced by their newly appointed leader Seffy and her friend Jean who have been seconded from their previous engagement. Seffy’s earlier relationship with the Canadian Callum, plays a big role in the telling when his girl from back home unexpectedly appears in the UK. To better appreciate the general tone, it is helpful to have read Helen Yendall’s previous novel, although not essential.

A lighthearted read of the trials and tribulations faced by the volunteers, both within the group and the local community, with the young women maturing through their experiences.

My thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

A cosy read women in WW2 romance novel, with plenty of humour too, The Limber Jills are back in book 3. Seph finds herself the leader of a group of young misfit girls, who have a lot of attitude but are also in need of some major cajoling. Meanwhile, she longs for Callum, the Canadian soldier she has fallen for. But trouble brews on that front too as Callum’s fiancé has surprisingly arrived in Britain. But of a mess really, and there’s a war going on too. I have enjoyed reading all three books. Thank you to HQ and NetGalley for the ARC. The views expressed are all mine, freely given.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The lumberjills undoubtedly had a tough job to do but there is still time for friendship, romance and the occasional adventure. Seffy and Jean are very different characters but they work well together, and I loved how Jean covered up for her friend when she went AWOL. The subplot about Missy coming over from Canada and working in the burns ward added more interest, and it was easy to like and be rooting for both Seffy snd Missy despite them being love rivals for the same man. I suspect this is to be the last book in this enjoyable series so was pleased it was given such a good and satisfying ending.

Continuing a series about the lives and loves of the lumberjills,set mostly in the Scottish Highlands during World War Two. A great bunch of characters some familiar ,some new.

I enjoyed reading this book whilst staying in the middle of a forest near Aviemore! I have thoroughly enjoyed the series although this was probably the title so far that least grabbed me. Perhaps it was the lack of the old faces with the book just focusing on a couple of the girls we had got to know and love. It was interesting moving to a different area and I wonder if now one of the main characters has moved to the New Forest if she will feature again or will the series still feature her as a Highland Girl but in a different part of the country?!

Highly recommend the series to others who enjoy historical fiction with some saga and romance.

Thank you to the publishers, author and NetGalley for allowing me to read and review an Arc copy.

Firstly thank you Netgalley for this Arc

Another brilliant book in this series family saga

Love keeping up to date with everyone in this brilliant series

The highland girls report for duty, another installment in this great series, it’s just like catching up with old friends. Seffy and Jean are sent to oversee a new team of lumberjills and this time they’ve definitely got their work cut out to get them into shape, the new girls are led by Peggy the ringleader of the gang who puts seffy and Jean to the test at every opportunity. Absolutely love this series and always look forward to the new one.

I’ve always eagerly anticipated the follow up to these books and it’s finally here! I’ve grown to love this group of strong woman and learning more about the Timber Corp (a less publicised area of the war’s work force) and this one had so many hooks.

I loved getting to know a whole new cast of women (as Jean and Seffy get temporarily transferred to whip a sorry bunch into shape) and wow do they need some help! Seffy and her relationship to the dashing Canadian too I’ve been fully invested in, and when his wife to be appears in England for war work.. things are bound to heat up.

I loved reading this in the mornings with my coffee and looked forward to it every day. And boy did I absolutely annihilate the last 30% of this book which I pretty much read in a frenzy. So entertaining and so enjoyable to read!

It’s a welcome return to the Lumberjills where changes are afoot. When confident Seffy puts in for a transfer she gets much more than she bargains for, at least she has Jean with her. The only problem is, Jean being economical with the truth! The two women find themselves in Ballamar, Aberdeenshire where their billet is with the delightful Mrs Harris. They are to meet with Mr Burke who will give details of the job (or will he).When faced with their new workforce Steffy has to question if she is actually up to the job, it’s only the thought of finishing the job and getting to Callum that keeps her going.
Meanwhile Callum is met with a surprise from home, how honest will he be.
Jean finds new strengths when Seffy decides she is going to go to London for a few days leaving Jean in charge. Is she up to the job?

The information about conscientious objectors was interesting. I found the Missy character annoying.
Personally I didn’t enjoy this one as much as I did the first two books, others will probably feel differently.

What an absolute joy to read, so interesting, learning how hard these women worked during the second world war without much recognition. I enjoy these types of books as they are so easy to read. My thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.
