Trollope's main satirical target in this novel is advertising. It's too heavy handed, particularly from a novelist whose satirical touch could be appealingly light. What saved this novel for me was the competition between Robinson and Brisket, the butcher, for the hand of Maryanne Brown, although that, too, Trollope draws very broadly. Twenty years or so after reading this, I still chuckle over Robinson's excoriation of the more prosperous Brisket, when he feared Brisket was prevailing with Maryanne: "Let him revel in his shambles!"

This book is magnificent, really. I am in awe of Sally Gardner, who didn't even learn how to read or write until she was 14 due to dyslexia! She sure showed all the people that wrote her off, didn't she? It is a beautiful, modern-written (but not modern setting --- 1600s) fairy tale. This fairy tale...the story is lovely and lyrical and SO well written. It was at times hilarious...and other times, gut-wrenchingly horrifying. The evil stepmother is taken to a whole new level in Maud Leggs and Arise Fell. The storyline with the prince isn't very well developed, but that is because Coriander is the true heroine of the story. She saves him this time around! A twist that I really loved. This story just wraps itself around you --- it's hard to describe. If you like historical fiction, or even if you like fantasy and fairy tale retellings, you will love this book! I can only hope you will be half as entranced as I was.

I read this one - twice - and had a completely different experience each time. I've heard Lois McMaster Bujold insist that a Reader is an author's Collaborator, changing a story based on where they are in their own lives whenever they arrive at the page, but I never quite understood that idea. Now I do. Oddly enough, I don't think it was where I was in my life that altered my reading of this book the second time, but rather, my willingness, the second time through, to remember my life when I was "Anna" - or not her, exactly, but having my first love as a pre-teen ... and then having him die suddenly, unexpectedly, out of my control, without any recourse and worst of all, leaving me with NO ONE to talk to about my feelings. My family didn't even know he existed in my life. His family blamed me and refused to acknowledge MY existence. And then my father died, overshadowing everything and everyone. I carried my lost love grief around for the next 40 years and now, as a grown woman in middle age, Sarah's amazingly vibrant depiction of the feelings plucked every one of my heart strings. I sobbed the tears of grief at 50 that I'd never been allowed to shed at 12. Thank you, Sarah, for opening up that locked treasure chest I hadn't realized I'd buried all these years. Getting past the hurt, I found all of the love again :) That made it all worth it. Maybe in another year I'll read this a third time and see what treasures it uncovers in my heart then.

The Socialite and The Cattle King is the 67th romance by Lindsay Armstrong. Holly Harding (socialite turned journalist) needs a big scoop to cement her career. Infamous cattle king, Brett Wyndham would do nicely. But when they meet at a pair of A-list functions, the sparks fly: she’s not sure she likes his attitude. He likes the look of her, however, and grants an interview, as long as she is prepared to accompany him to his cattle-station in the gulf country. Somehow, they manage to control their attraction to each other, until the return journey, when the plane goes down. A sexy romance with humour and heartache and a decidedly Queensland flavour.

I'm not sure what exactly it is about Francine Rivers books, but they somehow manage to be both restorative and addictive. Perhaps it's partly her romance novel writing history, but she pulls you in and onwards while giving you more substance (and less purple prose) than your average romance novel. Being reminded of spiritual truths is comforting and helpful, I find. I can understand why some people don't like The Voice in the Wind series, but the heroine of this novel is very different to the wise and holy Hadassah. I like them both, but the flawed Angel is perhaps more relateable! (Note: this is NOT a holier-than-thou book. I don't think. It probably would be interesting to get an non-Christian's opinion, though...) :)
I loved this book.

I enjoyed this one...easy beach read but a great story. But one moral of the story for us moms...your husbands have jobs and the kids will grow up and have their own lives...take time for yourself and do some things that you enjoy instead of waiting until you have time because you never will have enough time. Some good quotes.... Listen, the way you spend each day adds up to the way you spend your life. - Ch 13 (Lady that sold house to Grace) ...she even loved to sink into the mindless pleasure of half-awake sex -CH 18 As the years went by, both of them seemed to have forgotten to tend to their fragile bond. Between his demanding career and her absorption in raising three kids, they had lost each other. They hadn't paid enough attention to their marriage, hadn't nurtured their love. They'd both tacitly assumed it would thrive on neglect like a weed in the garden. The years wore away the shiny newness of their passion, etching it with scars. -CH 29 (Grace and Steve) Easy. I ask her all the time. We ask each other. How are you doing? How are we doing? - CH 38 (older guy to Grace about knowing what is wife wanted)

This is a wonderful story of magic, but in the most unique of ways. I cannot wait to read the next in the series and all the others. Brilliant tale :D
