Yours from the Tower by Sally Nicholls. Walker Books, 2023. Young Adult fiction.Told in the form of letters, this novel follows the lives of three school friends who are searching for their next steps in life. It's the late 1890's in Great Britain. Sophia is doing "the season" in London and looking for a wealthy husband to secure her future. Polly is working in an orphanage in Liverpool. Tirzah is, unhappily, the companion to her remote grandmother in Scotland. The three pour out their hearts in letters to each other and others. Like in Jane Austen and the Bridgerton tv series, all does not go smoothly as they dream about adult life.
