Book Review: Star of the Show by Jacqueline Wilson

Such a lovely, sweet, heartwarming and also bittersweet little read! I love JW Victorian novels and it was good to see another one come out. Rating: 4 out of 5 stars Honestly, my only real problem was the ending, with there having been such a lack of closure I just felt pretty frustrated and mad. I mean I was actually ready to read more only to found the book came to an end. I mean there was so much unresolved, like what had happened with the situation with Cedric and his family wanting to adopt Ada, with it seeming like they had fallen out, which was a pity due to the friendship Tess had developed with Cedric, like was she never going to be friends with them again?! Also it's true that nothing was really resolved in terms of Tess and her siblings in the long-term, like Cedric's dad pointed out, like where they just going to live like that forever in financial instability?! Honestly it just annoyed me so much, there were so many loose ends that were not tied, so I am really hop...
