My Reviews
The book showed that not all characters were all bad or all good. It was interesting that all the 12 sisters were named after the months of the year and how each of their lives commenced.
We all loved it. It taught us about the minds of some of the residents of a nursing home and reenforced the idea of a mostly non-caring environment. It gave us a picture of circus life like we had never known. This book should be enjoyed by all clubs.
For the first comment, the book is way too long. She could have said all in about half of the pages. We thought the climax of the book would have been the announcement of the mother of the baby. No, there was a quarter of the book to go yet. In the begininng, there seemed to be too much character development and it was unclear as soon as you got to a new passage what character she was talking about. We would not recommend this book to anyone. Sorry.
We, actually, all had different ideas about this book. We each saw it in a different light. I saw it as one that reaffirmed what I thought about the stages of life. Another few persons thought that Mrs. Lindberg was an unhappy woman. I did not see it that way. This book gave us a longer meeting because of all the discussion.
We (with one man) thought that the book was better than a regular romance. Yes, it did have some romance but it was the story of 2 separate persons coming to grips with their life. It is told through knitting terms and textiles.
There was not one person in the club that did not like it. Because it is historical fiction, you can relate the characters to the times. We all highly recommend it.
This is the beginning of a fabulous series that MUST be read in order. All the characters become like family and you look forward to meeting them again in the next book.
It is the most boring of the Savannah Quartet by Eugenia Price. It is needed tho as a bridge to the final 2 books.
It is the continuing saga of the McKay and Stiles families before and during the Civil War.
We felt this book to be the perfect ending of the quartet. This book is aptly titled because as much as Mark Browning loved Savannah, he never became a "favored" son. He was always an outsider no matter what he thought.
This is the story of a young woman who always wanted to leave her hometown and what she learned when she returned. A tragedy brought her back.
