This one was quite slow at the beginning, and for a time I had to make myself push through.Sarah Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13340312953393474963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19307003.post-32657149375522631272013-06-11T10:21:47.412-05:002013-06-11T10:21:47.412-05:00This book was a prize winner years ago, so I disco...This book was a prize winner years ago, so I discovered, but has fallen off the radar since then. I'm going to attempt to review more older titles here.Sarah Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13340312953393474963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19307003.post-32115058890714062112013-06-11T04:18:55.623-05:002013-06-11T04:18:55.623-05:00This is a book that I feel should have been tailor...This is a book that I feel should have been tailor made for me - different setting about interesting characters. Unfortunately it ended up being a DNF instead. Occasionally I think that I might try again but it will be a little while before I am ready to try again I think.Marghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508430635744720721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19307003.post-44517799761835592202013-06-08T20:04:31.549-05:002013-06-08T20:04:31.549-05:00I have also not heard of this one so making a note...I have also not heard of this one so making a note of it.

I still have her earlier historical novel Restoration to get to.Sarah Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13340312953393474963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19307003.post-4349971454364789292013-06-08T11:50:34.165-05:002013-06-08T11:50:34.165-05:00Well well..I have never heard of this novel or the...Well well..I have never heard of this novel or the author, but now I may have to track it down. Sadly, I fear these posts will expand my TBR pile as they deplete yours! That's ok, though. My TBR pile is the best problem that I have.Tara from Marylandnoreply@blogger.com
