The Baby Farm

Summary: Great Writer, Great Book...wish there was more romance.
Review: I have read almost all of Karen Harper's books. I think she is a great writer. She really pulls you into the story. Like all of her other stories, she has a gift for making you feel like you are the heroine/hero. You feel like you are actually living in Apalachia (sp?).

I liked the character of Emma - the midwife/heroine of the book. Griff was interesting too. I wish Karen Harper would include more romance in her books. I always feel like she is holding back in the romance dept. There were so many opportunities in this book. I do highly recommend this book. Romance or not the story was suspenseful and the secondary characters were first rate!

Review: I think the book is written well. It kept up at night wondering what will happen next, Karen Harper is an author who paints a picture for you. The storyline is wonderful,it makes you think Hm-mmm could this really be happening somewhere. I can't say anymore. It is an excellent book,and a fantastic storyline.Karen if all your books are as interesting as this one, then your are an exceptional author who paints a picture well. I felt as if was part of the book. Thank you for writing a very good book.

Summary: I enjoyed this book, but I needed more time on my hands
Review: The baby Farm by Karen Harper was a great adventure thriller. The book Kept me on edge and kept me wondering what would happen next.The book also has some what of a romance style to it which put some spice into it. The problem I found with this book is you had to have a lot of spare time because once you start reading this book you can't put it down. That is a problem with me because I have sports and many other extra-cricular activity's.The book does jump around a lot which can be confusing and get you a bit lost, especialy when you have to come back to a spot that you left off the last time you read the book. Sometimes I would have to go back to the beging of the last chapter to figure out what was happening.My favorite thing about this book is how Karen was able to keep you constantly wondering what was going to happen next. You were always on edge , oh my gosh what's going to happen I found my self saying many times. I have never found a book that I have truly liked, but I haven't read that many books to know what is a good book or not, but in my opinion I really enjoyed this book. As a teen I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a thriller and maybe even a romance story. I hope you will take me word and read this book.

Summary: The Baby Farm reviewed
Review: The story in this book was interesting, but I found the style of telling it to be choppy and hard to follow. The description of a difficult childbirth was mesmerizing and really well-done, but the romance was too sparse. Mostly I objected to ends not being tied up....we never found out what happened to several of the secondary characters, people we had either come to like or wanted to be sure they got what they deserved!

Summary: Suspenseful -- but too many coincidences
Review: This book has a great plot and some wonderful twists. Having the heroine be a midwife and the hero be a doctor was a wonderful idea.

I would have rated it higher if there weren't so many plot coincidences. Also, a couple of scenes, though exciting, didn't ring true because they seemed a bit contrived.

Also, I would like to know why the front cover blurb gives away a major secret!

I gave this one a B- a All About Romance.
