A bit for everyone - and the right price!

Nobody complains about something for nothing right? Well, I would, and wasting time reading a bad book would be something I'd regret... Not with this one.
A longer book (for a freebie), with a bit of everything in it. Romance, action, drama, death, tragedy.
Tells the story of Stephen, a girl (yes a girl) growing up in rural England in the 19th Century. A girl way ahead of her times, only daughter (her dad wanted a boy hence her name), who inherits a fortune. The Man tells the story of her and her two main love interests, and one of their adventures overseas. It also touches on good and bad times growing up, and Stephen's relationship with her aunt.
Telling too much more would give a lot away of the plot but it is well written, though drags at times (but not often). Great character development, not only Stephen, but her best friend Harold and a lot of other characters, some who don't enter the story until well into the second half.
Not the kind of story I would usually read, though I enjoyed it immensely after being recommended by a friend.
4 - 4 1/2 stars

Great Book!

This has to be the best book I've ever read, that I didn't hear about in advance. It starts out slow, but after a while became a major page turner. I found myself crying during parts of it! It is set in the very late 1800's and the story centers around a young woman who has a great ideas for her life; I liked her ideas and do well remember being frustrated with the "way things were" when I was the same age. Problems develop for her when she makes a decision in haste, and acts upon it. I was completely impressed her ability to recognize her error, and how she corrects it. Loved it! Would make an excellent film!
Nice book

I really enjoyed this book. Who says after writing dracula you can't be a little touchy feely in another book.
