.Gypsy
City Travel Guides > Books > Family Sagas
by: Lesley Pearse

July 17, 2008
I have read all of Lesley's books but consider this to be one of the weakest ones so far. Compared to blockbusters such as 'Never look back' and ' 'Till we meet again', this book was like diluted juice rather than concentrated juice !
I couldn't get the emotional attachment towards Beth, that I generally feel with Lesley's leading ladies.Whilst her life experiences were challenging and sometimes sad, I found myself wanting to know more about the other caracters rather than Beth.
I read that Lesley had spend time in the Klondike when preparing for this book. It showed ! I was there ; I could smell the bars spilling over with people. I could see the facades as described on the buildings. And I could feel the cold ice whilst I snuggled ... Read More:

.Rogue
City Travel Guides > Books > Family Sagas
by: Danielle Steel

June 30, 2008
I have to agree with the previous reveiew in that I found myself wondering what happened?!? It started off well and as with all other Danielle Steel books her writing is easy and flows well, however this particular story about Maxine and her ex husband Blake, along with Maxines new husband to be Charles was a little repetitive, if not a little boring. The ending was abrupt and predictable and I didn't enjoy the book that much but it was an easy read.

.The Bells of Bournville Green
City Travel Guides > Books > Family Sagas
by: Annie Murray

May 02, 2008
This book is a true masterpiece, and one of the best Annie Murray books that I have read to date. This is the sequel to her award winning book 'Chocolate girls' and in my opinion this book is even better than the first one.

This book tells the story from the thinking of Greta, a young girl who ends up marrying a man she doesn't love simply to escape Ruby her mother. And it tells about the Life of David AKA Rudi or Doodi and his life with his Wife Gila, and Son Shimon.
This book combines the strong characters of Ruby, Janet and Edie from the first book, but we see them in a different light as life has changed them. Although they are still key characters in the book we are led through events in their childrens eyes.
This is a ... Read More:
