Orphan Train

Orphan TrainOrphan Train by Christina Baker Kline
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

From the first page of this book to the last, I was hooked and couldn't put it down! I enjoyed this book so much and I read it one day.
I thoroughly enjoyed reliving Niamh's journey from Ireland, to becoming Dorothy and then her life as Vivian. The addition of Molly's character gives Vivian's story a voice that it might not have had if they had not met. Molly's own sad tale of being orphaned and bouncing from home to home giving her a unique perspective on the world. I found the story unique and am curious on doing some more reading about the orphan trains.
Well done.
