Brighter Days for the Cornish Girls continues Sheila, Caroline, and Selina’s adventures after the war. While the war is over, many things have not changed in England. The men are turning, but rationing is still in effect. I have enjoyed getting to know these characters and I am glad that we get to see how they are faring after the war. I felt for Selina who misses her sister, but her late sister’s children keep her on her toes. We get to meet Grace, who is new to town and will provide friendship for one of the ladies who misses her friend. The author captured Cornwall with the moors and the charming village. I enjoyed reading this sweet story with the various storylines. While Brighter Days for the Cornish Girls is the eighth book in The Cornish Girls Series, it can be read as a standalone. I enjoyed reading the series in order because it has allowed me to get to know the characters and know what they went through during the war. Brighter Days for the Cornish Girls is a heartwarming tale with farm work, caring for children, finding a new friend, missing a sister, rationing and shortages, and a hopeful future.
