Enjoyed the romance and all the "mysteries" and "secrets" even if most of them were fairly obvious--I still enjoyed the characters unraveling them. My husband actually read this one before I did and also really enjoyed it. So it's thumbs up all around. ( ) The Secret of Pembrooke Park is a tough book for me to rate because while I did really enjoy it, there's something preventing me from giving it more than 3 stars. I loved all of the mystery surrounding Pembrooke Park (and it's previous inhabitants). It's a bit predictable but there are a few twists thrown in to keep you engaged..if not solely for the plot then to see how the characters handle the revelations. This is beautifully written with a sweet romance and a number of likable characters. That said it probably could have been a little shorter. I'd say it's worth a read, especially if you're a fan of regency romance novels with an added dose of mystery. Wow, great read for anyone who's ever enjoyed Northanger Abbey or Jane Eyre! Secret of Pembrooke Park has a delightful mix of Austen-like hardship, family, community, and tension, while balancing some Bronte-style mystery. It makes for an awesome combo. Abigail Foster is a practical, sensible heroine. Although her life is far from content from being in the shadow of her beautiful sister, struggling with her father's financial worries, lack of prospects, and moving, she doesn't complain. Instead she adapts to her new surroundings, the eerie Pembrooke Park, curious to understand its mysteries and tragic history. Along the way, she finds new friends and suitors. Especially the strong and kindhearted local curate, William Chapman. As a reader, I was eager to finally know the deep secrets of Pembrooke Park. However, I was even more impatient for William to confess his feelings! He was perfect. Handsome, gentle, good sense of humor. The tension was too much. I was clinging to every conversation between William and Abigail. I have to thank the Goodreads Choice Awards for introducing me to this book and author! I have a new favorite in both areas. Highly recommended to Regency romance fans. Great way for me to start my 2016 reading. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
