Rezensionen

Yay for a moderately quick book starting with the letter Q! I've enjoyed Rebecca Buck's work in the past so I had no doubt that I'd like this one, especially since the subject is something dear to her. I knew that it would be well researched and entertaining and she didn't let me down. Each short story has historical significance and the author gives us a little extra insight to boot.

A friend asked if it was depressing and I have to say that, while some of the stories were sad, there were plenty of happy endings, too.

If you like reading historical novels, you very well will enjoy this book.

I was given a copy by the publisher quite a while ago through NetGalley for review. Yes, I'm very bad at timely reviews. Very bad.

I already knew that I'd enjoy Hope in the Heart of Winter because I'm a fan of the author's previous work. Buck has a way of capturing an era and dropping the reader right where she wants us and making us believe we're there. Buck has a great writing style and it never takes long for me to be swept up in the world she creates.

I haven't read the book that these characters first appeared, Ghosts of Winter, but now I'd like to. This is a very, very short story capturing one evening but I felt for Evadne and want her to find happiness. And I want to know how everything turned out!

Thanks to NetGalley and Bold Strokes Books for the ARC in exchange for an honest review. And thanks to Rebecca Buck for writing so damn well.

A friend of mine put it down at chapter 6 but I truly liked this book. I loved the language and the characters and the history.

I enjoyed the historical aspect of this book the most. Good debut novel. The author joined us on episode 12 of Cocktail Hour to discuss Truths.
