Blog 17 - A Great Christmas Present for a Writer! - 27 December 2013

Christmas morning arrived and I opened my pressies. Nothing unusual in that - except that this time I found, to my delight, a present that was exactly what I wanted! A great review accompanied by five stars!!!! Thanks Lorraine.

Here's what she had to say: 
Captivating!
I loved reading Harcourt's Mountain. From the start Elaine Dodge grips the reader with her beautiful use of language. You are drawn into the story and empathise with Hope as she makes her way on the unexpected path her life has taken. I enjoyed the historical aspect and how the characters come alive and how they are not so different to us with their feelings, dreams and desires, despite living in another time. You'll not regret reading this captivating novel!

I also checked the Amazon UK site and there was another review - also five stars!!! This one was from Janette Chapman and she said: 
Wonderful Story
I loved this book because it was so different from my usual reading and the people seemed so real you felt like you would like to know them. A sequel would be great. I could not put it down and was sad when I finished it only because I was enjoying it so much.
 
Thanks ladies, I'm so glad you'd enjoyed the book.
