Absolutely loved this novel. Finished reading this morning and while listening to CHFI 93.6, George Anderson on 93.6 played a romantic piece by Fredrick Chopin. It made my day to hear it as Chopin was an important part of this story…

I have read all of Ms. Berg's previous books and enjoyed them immensely, this one was different and I was a bit apprenhensive about an historical novel by her, but because I know that she is an excellent writer, I decided to stick to this…

I have enjoyed reading this author's books but this one is a miss. I just couldn't get connected to it and was so bored I gave up early on.
