My favourite character is Esther because she stands up to the most fierce, and even if she was a bully, that's changed now!In this book, there were not a lot of illustrations but the ones there were, were thorough and detailed to help visualise the story. My main critique is that the pace of the book seems to soar at some points meaning particular sections feel rushed.

While in Devon, Olive begins to unravel the mystery and finds out that her sister is more connected to Devon than she realized. Also, this book was interesting I got to learn about world war 2 and what happened around these times. The book is packed with mystery and suspense which made me want to read it as I love mystery and history books. Letters from the Lighthouse has a unique plot which I personally think Emma Carroll has succeeded in to make it a bestseller.This is one of the books that at the start it was quiet upsetting but through out the book it got really interesting- especially the quick sand which really got me on my toes.

Olive is sure something is going on that she isn’t being told about and she’s convinced her sister Sukie is somehow involved. Your words, like your reviews, bring books to life and give them a voice before the front cover is even turned. Bombs are dropping from the sky like pennies from a jar when Olive and her little brother, Cliff, are evacuated to Devon.I think that Letters From the Lighthouse was one of the best books I’ve ever read, I thought it was so good because of how the story changed every few pages and that kept me reading the book and I couldn’t possibly put it down.
