"Loved this book!
When I first began reading it, I don’t know what I was expecting. Perhaps echoes of one of my favorite books, The Rising of the Lark, by Ann Moray, and there’s a tiny bit of that, but also a little bit of The Secret Garden and some t" Read more of this review » |

Well, I thought the same thing but I finished it and was glad I did. A much different story than Secret Garden IMHO!

| I love this book for its unusual hero, the unwanted heir to a noble family! And the mystery of what the youngest member of the family is up to and a delightful heroine. Ms Heyer never disappoints! | |

“Anger tried to boil up higher inside her. She closed her eyes, praying for God’s peace. Human wrath was against the will of God and only gave Satan influence over a soul. Honor must leave these evil men to God’s justice.”

“My mother is bold in her caused,” George said. “We have never had a runaway slave come to our door, but I too would help him. My mother and I were forced to leave North Carolina when we freed our slaves. The anger our former neighbors and friends turned on us told us much. When a person does what is right, it stirs the rage of those who will not turn from doing the same evil.”

Hello Lyn sounds like you are reading some good books, I read death on the orient express quite some time ago, may have to reread it as was a very good book. I have always been an avid reader and read across many genre. I usually always have a book close to hand. I picked up a Zane Grey book at age five, asked my father to help with the first sentence and then I was off reading and have been reading ever since. I loved the Little House by Wilder, Agatha Christie Anne of Green Gables Etc when I was younger. I wish you happy reading and writing and hope all goes well for you.
Hi, Lyn! Thanks for contacting me, Friend Request Accepted! Congratulations on your books! I hope you've had a great week and will enjoy a fine weekend. Happy reading, writing, and everything else. Blessings!Best wishes from Majenta

Yes, I have been upset by the new FAKE Poirot mysteries written by another author. Agatha Christie killed off Poirot in the 70's to prevent this but obviously this wish is not being respected.
