Summer Reading Reviews, Week One

Thanks to our Barnard Crossing patrons for submitting reviews of the books they've been reading for the summer reading program this year!

Country by Danielle Steel
Reviewed by Susan W.
"A classic, happy love story by this well written and well known author. Likable characters; light story line of girl meets boy and eventually end up together. Easy read even though it's a bit predictable." 8.5/10

Freedom's Child by Jax Miller
Reviewed by Kim T.
"Debut novel from a new author. Interesting story line and a good read." 8/10

The Guest Cottage by Nancy Thayer
Reviewed by Jane B.
"Two families unknowingly rent the same beach cottage on Nantucket Island, so they share. Happiness all around. Perfect, light beach read." 7/10

The Hummingbird's Cage by Tamara Dietrich
Reviewed by Susan W.
"A new twist on the unfortunate story of abuse and how it's dealt with and the ramifications physical and emotional abuse has on many lives. Thought provoking, honest, and heart-wrenching. A bit of mystical throughout. Fast paced and hard to put down." 9/10
