Northern Echo
To say that I enjoyed ‘Secrets Of The Shipyard Girls’ is something of an understatement. … fantastically and beautifully written … I have heard that Nancy Revell has been described as being the new Catherine Cookson but in our eyes, Nancy Revell is a far better author
Ginger Book Geek Blog
Has all the essentials of a good novel – well-drawn, believable and sympathetic characters combined with a storyline to keep you turning the page.
