Rating:  Summary: Great start to a new series Review: I enjoyed reading Land of My Heart. I don't believe I've read a book of Ms. Peterson's that I didn't enjoy though. The characters are intriguing, and the reader can't help but identify with them. I found Dianne's uncle's marriage to the Native American woman to be very interesting. I look forward to reading more about that, and about the other characters in the next book.
Rating:  Summary: Not for avid romance readers. Review: I haven't read much by Tracie Peterson but i was definitely expecting a little more romance in this book. There was so many sad events it was abnormal. I thought it was pretty boring and i didn't even end up finishing it.
Rating:  Summary: I loved this book Review: I really liked this book, it was tragic story of a family, as far as romance it had enough to suit me, to prepare for the next book.
If you like this book also try the series by Liz Curtis Higgs, Thorn in my Heart and Fair is the Rose, those books are by far the best I have ever read
Rating:  Summary: A very Sad, but eye opening book Review: I thought the beginning was slightly boring but then it developed into a great story and I couldnt put it down.
Rating:  Summary: A Challenging read.... but keep reading. Review: In this historical fiction, Dianne loses a great deal in her quest to better the lives of her mother and siblings. She urges them to travel across the country in a wagon train to the new Montana Territory, but in the process, she loses much. Some loss comes by death, some by distance, some by a distant heart..... but will she find herself and what she loves most? Just when resolution seems eminent, a cliffhanger......At times, I thought I could read no more, but I couldn't put it down!
Rating:  Summary: Diane is forced to suffer more than seems necessary..... Review: Somehow I felt Tracie Peterson went a bit heavy on the sad stuff, but perhaps that was the way it was. Dianne is featured along with her family which continues to decrease due to various reasons and some very tragic circumstances. Diane and her Mother want to take the family and flee the war in Missouri- so- without her Father, they leave on a wagon train for Montana. If anything else went wrong there would not have been a book to write! Whites hating Blacks, Indians hating Whites, families in turmoil and through it all, a thread of hope and the Gospel. Enough happiness and success is present to continually nudge the reader to finish. Tracie did a great job with proof of cultural differences and the grief they could cause through other people, especially in dealing with the marriage of Bram and Koko. I am anxious for book 2 in this series. Thank you Tracie Peterson.
