Re: Overall rating and opinion of "Ironbark Hill" by Jennie Linnane
I loved the writers ability to create strong characters, which helped you to care what happened to them in the story. Although in saying that the ending of the story is probably the part that I liked the least (without giving away spoilers).
I'd definitely recommend the book to others now that I've read it, it was quite enjoyable on a miserable day.

One of the things I liked about the book is the fact that Natalie never quit learning, and even with her having just an intermediate certificate, she still had the zeal for further learning.
However, I detested the affair between Natalie and Bruce, because not only was she sixteen and he was in his thirties, the author focused on the situation instead of focusing on the hatred within Shirley. I also disliked that fact that after everything, Alex was still able to manipulate her at the end to do his bidding.
The author was able to keep the reader’s attention with her perspective even with the few punctuation errors and one misspelled word in the book. Using very basic explanations, the author captured the essence of each individual. She was also able to bring wit into a very emotional story, a story of a young woman who was determined to own her life, despite her abusive family. At the end, she did own her life.
