Rating: Summary: A warm hearted book Review: I read this book when it first came out and i read it once a year now..i enjoy the way that Ann takes you deep into the emotions of the main character..you feel like you are going through this experience with her. I look forward to reading more books by Ann Tatlock soon
Rating: Summary: 2 1/2 stars --- Story is too drawn out --- Lost interest Review: I started out praising this book. The writing is really quite lovely. BUT the story is sooooo drawn out. Scenes that could have taken a paragraph or two go on and on and on. I realize a writer has to set the mood but Tatlock goes so overboard in detailing every emotion and happening that it TAKES AWAY from the story. I've read LONG books (over 1000 pages) and the story was so good I didn't want them to end, but this story did not have enough subplots ... or any.. to carry the long windedness. I'm sorry, but because of this major flaw I left this book near the end. By that time I really didn't care what happened to the characters, and I think that is the very WORST THING that can happen to a reader.
Rating: Summary: Great book and interesting to read! Review: I usually don't read novels, but my Mom gave me a copy of this book and I found it interesting, inspirational, passionate and educational! The Characters practically jumped off the page, and I felt like I was experiencing the era firsthand.... A must read (even if you normally don't read novels)!
