I have fallen in love with yet another author.<\/p>\n

\"Firebird\"

I know I am late to the party on this one, as usual. It seems to me that the whole world is already in love with Susanna Kearsley and her beautiful books, and for good reason. Reading her work is bliss.<\/p>\n

As I finished my\u00c2\u00a0 latest revision of\u00c2\u00a0 MUCH ADO ABOUT JACK, I would leave my sparring lovers to immerse myself in Susanna Kearsley’s world. And what a beautiful world it is.<\/p>\n

I give this book five stars, but in truth, I would like to give it ten. A story of love rediscovered and redeemed, a story of two women linked across time who in the end, discover the truth of who they are. A marvelous novel.<\/p>\n
