  			New comment on <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1855433" class="userReview" style="font-weight: bold">Christina</a>'s review of 
  		<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1196059.Bette" class="bookTitle">Bette (Women of Ivy Manor, #2)</a>
  		<br/><span class="by">by</span>
  		<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/101121.Lyn_Cote" class="authorName">Lyn Cote</a>

  		<br/><br/>				
  		That's a good perspective, I hadn't thought of it in that way but you are right.  Now that I look back with your comment in mind I realize that Bette also had a bit more depth of character.  If I think back during the time of life when I read this book it wasn't taht I didn't like it, more that I struggled along with her and related to Bette in ways that almost made reading her story painful.  Now that I look back (hind sight being what it is and all) I realize that I was a little more emotionally invested in this book than I wanted to to admit at the time.  I know that probably doesn't make sense with my first comment but sometimes it takes time for a book to really sink in with me.

    			  This was one of those books that took me a while to get into and once there I wasn't sure what to think.  It grew on me though and after finishing I discovered that I really did enjoy it more than I thought I had.  <br/><br/>The author takes significant license with historical events which I usually don't like, but it worked for this novel and I appreciated the depth Emily Mitchell gave her characters and the fantastical look into their lives real or otherwise.
