It’s their debut novel, though, so they’ve got room to improve.” On the other hand, my first thought upon reading this book was more along these lines: “Oh my gosh! This is her first book?!” I have a funny feeling that Dawn Crandall just might end up on my Favorite Authors list. Often, I read an author’s debut novel and think, “Eh… it was okay. It really brought the story to life for me! I can’t tell you how much it drew me into the story - so much that it made me almost feel like a part of it. For me, first person narration will make or break a story.
The setting, the time period, the story line… it was all great and I really enjoyed it!Īs for the writing style… I know I’ve said before that I’m usually a bit reluctant to read a book written in first person. I loved the characters! Some of them did annoy me sometimes, but I have yet to read a book that that statement doesn’t apply to. What did it leave me looking for? Book two!
I definitely did not hate this book, but I didn’t simply like it either - I loved it!! Yes, it drew me in quickly and kept my attention to the last page. Will I like it? Will I hate it? Will it draw me in? Or will it leave me looking for a better book to spend my time with? When I pick up a book by a new-to-me author, I’m usually a little hesitant.
