Enjoyed It

I ordered this specifically from the publisher, Avalon Press, because I'm interested in submitting to their company. The book in and of itself was great. I really liked the size. I hate how large and cumbersome hardbacks can be, but this was nice. As far as Turner's "Adieu, My Love"-I enjoyed the story. Gobbled it down in two days. This is an interesting setting (early French/Canada) a lot of people aren't familiar with. She's a great descriptive writer-doesn't overdo it but takes you there with definitive imagery. I don't know if I'd want to pay as much for hardcover along the lines of this genre-but I would definitely pick up another one of her novels if given the chance. (Wouldn't mind a sequel either.) I like to learn when I read historicals but I don't want to be lectured. Turner does it just right.
