I very much enjoyed the story and the constant discovery all the way to the very list page. However, it was sometime difficult to follow as the story kept jumping back and forth to different period of times and different voices ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/77992517 to: An Echo in the Bone (Outlander, #7) by Diana Gabaldon
Did I miss something????? not as polished as the previous ones
The begining is slow and I guess if you are an a Revolutionary War buff, the middle is also slow, but the end is where I got totally lost. I goes so fast with so many threads and unfinished scenes. Would have been better do devote a lot more page the end and less to the middle

This one of my most favorite book. Beryl Markham writes with such skills that words become brush strokes. From her canvas springs forth all the hidden beauties of Africa in a set of painting that beg you come see it for yourself.

We tend to forget that Louisiana was once French and that French view of racial relations is different. This is an astonishing piece of genealogic research that depicts life as it was prior to the expansion of American racial views. The book makes you wonder how different the US would be if the Creole way of life as survived. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/8189547 to: The Forsyte Saga (Paperback) by John Galsworthy
900 pages..., yet I have read this book 3 times!. Once you start you cannot put it down!. It is such a facinating study of victorian area families and society as a whole. ]]>
