A thrilling and very intense read! The main characters where interesting
and complex. I liked how there were many twists and secrets revealed as
I read. The newspaper articles, online tabloid articles and interviews
made the story come alive. I definitely want to read more books by this
author!
A fascinating book which taught me a great deal about not
only the inner workings of the heart but also the evolution of
humanity's understanding of the heart. Through patient stories the
author put a a human face to the complexities of heart disease. The
advances in surgical techniques and advances in life saving devices have
been staggering. I can only imagine what further advances there will be
within the next decade and beyond.
A really enjoyable prequel to the Wealth of Time series! I loved learning more about Chris Speidel, his wife Gloria and their daughter Angelina. I look forward to reading more books in this thrilling series!
Wow, what an excellent story! I was hooked from page one. Such an
interesting cast of characters living together in an English suburb. The
complex relationships and interactions between the main cast of
characters was a joy to read! I like how the relationships between the
characters changed as the story progressed. The interviews, newspaper
stories and online conversations were also enjoyable to read. The twists
and the ending took me by surprise. I look forward to reading more
books by this author!
A very well written and beautiful story that I absolutely adored! The characters were complex and very well developed. I could relate to Elixa's pursuit of knowledge as learning is also very important to me. I could vividly picture the Abbey and the surrounding area. Such a fascinating community! The ending was perfect! I look forward to reading more books in this trilogy!
I found this novel very moving and inspiring! Not only did Allison
Watson deal with cystic fibrosis but she also had a double lung
transplant and endured chemo treatment for post-transplant
lymphoproliferative disorder(PTLD) Her resilience and strength are
phenomenal! I am incredibly happy that the author is doing well. I
learned so much about cystic fibrosis, double lung transplants and PTLD.
Thank you Allison for sharing your story!
A slow burn of a novel that took a while to draw me in. I really liked the friendship between Jaya and Blanche. Also it was interesting to learn about the cult. The majority of the book was spent getting to know Blanche, Jaya, Chrissy, Chuck and other supporting players in the story. I liked learning about the character's backgrounds but wish the events in the second half of the book had taken place sooner. There were a few surprises which was nice. I look forward to reading more titles by Nathan Ripley.
