The Girl With the Golden Scissors

 Fiction by Julia Drosten


This is a historical fiction story originally written in German and set in Austria/Hungary. It follows a girl called Fanny who is given away at birth to the foundling home in Vienna and grows up there.

This was a decent story but not as absorbing as I'd have liked. Maybe it was the translation? Also I didn't love the narrator, which makes a big difference in an audiobook. I think if you are someone who really enjoys a straight romance you would like it.
