Now it looks like people are cranking out books and linking them to Downton Abbey just to get a sale. <br /><br />The humor in Downton Abbey is what made things better even during the bleaker times of Season Two. I have yet to find a "Downtonesque" novel that I really like.Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-50247757195838916622012-06-06T13:39:08.387-07:002012-06-06T13:39:08.387-07:00Awww, a deceivingly pretty cover that didn't l...Awww, a deceivingly pretty cover that didn't live up to expectations? I'm really sorry you didn't enjoy this one as much as you hoped to, B! It sounds like this one has the real potential to be a great historical read with the spanning timeline and war setting, but slow beginnings and confusing passages can definitely take away from a book. And I like my sad books too, but it really depends sometimes LOL -- more happiness is always welcomed! :') <br /><br />Still, even when you don't love a book, you always manage to write such awesome honest reviews! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts about this, B! :) <3Mimi Valentinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04241457025232914551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-31070339361597716322012-06-06T03:27:52.142-07:002012-06-06T03:27:52.142-07:00That's too bad.

Tha...That's too bad. I love Downton Abbey too!<br /><br />Thanks for the recommendation of the new Elizabeth Scott book. I love her books and Miracle sounds fascinating. I ordered it yesterday!Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04756695137600895936noreply@blogger.com
