You need To Check this And Miss Away With Rake
This was one of the best written books I've read in a long time. The story was different, however, it still contained the usual misunderstanding that leads to the crisis between the hero and heroine. But the characters were richly drawn. I love the Dale characters and would hope to see more of them in other stories maybe one of Crispin and/or Philomena. The trio of Tabitha, Daphne and Henrietta was really good, and I loved Roxley. The story bogged down a little toward the end with the dash to Gretna Green but the epilogue was funny. I would love to see more about these two families, but as only one Seldon remains unmarried I'm not sure if Hen could stomach another marriage and to a Dale at that.
I'm going to read all of this series as I really like the three main characters. Unfortunately, I began the series with number two, but I think I'll enjoy Preston and Tabitha's story as it unfolds nonetheless. And I'll have to await the publishing of the third book in the series regarding Henrietta and Roxley. What I like about this series is that no real amount of time separates the stories from each other, only a matter of weeks or months and the string together almost like one hughe story.
I highly recommend this author. Her writting skills are superb, characterizations are funny and endearing, and the stories are somewhat unique.
Read it, you'll enjoy it.

ReplyDeleteI really enjoy helping others and so I was wondering if there are other ways that perhaps I never even thought of? Can you simply name ways. I know giving people advice, donating, and doing them a favor like cleaning.
ReplyDeleteMy dh and I are taking a cruise in October to the Bahamas. We'll be in Freeport for about 8 hours then in Nassau for 24 hours. I am interested in the history and scenery, not necessarily the beaches or shopping. What should we not miss?
ReplyDeleteI have to memorize five poems for an English class by Robert Frost. I already have chosen Nothing Gold Can Stay, Fire and Ice, and Dust of Snow. They have to be really short because I am bad at memorizing things especially poems. I could really use some help.
ReplyDeleteI have already beaten Assignment Ada and Seperate Ways twice, but when i start a new game for Leon in his mafia/gangster costume, the merchant doesnt give me the option to buy the gun. Is there something I'm missing?
ReplyDeleteHey, whenever I go to the batting cages I have no problem hitting in a 75-83 MPH cage from 50 feet away. However, whenever I step into the box against live pitching at the same speed, I just can't seem to pull the trigger and swing. And when I do, I miss and my swing feels really off. Is this all just in my head? I think it is. Is there anything I can do to change this? Please say something, not just a one word answer.
