Customer Reviews

Fun Read

After reading a great review of this book I decided to give it a try. I have trouble finding novels that grab my attention and keep my interest, and I was thankful to find that Chasing Tales was fun from the start. I recommend it to any reader who enjoys getting to know the characters. I found myself missing them once I finished the book, and am hoping there will be more work coming from Lanae River-Woods in the future.

Along for the journey...

Chasing Tales is a true delight! There is a natural cantor to the way the characters are written, making you feel like you are discovering them as you read - similar to meeting a new person and learning about them through shared experiences. The effect is that by the end you feel as though you've made friends of the characters. Also, while the book is easy to read with a story that melts in your mouth, it is not full of brainless fluff. The characters deal with real issues that challenge you and gives you a sense of sinking your teeth into real life.

An excellent study in character development & a great read.

This excellent first novel by Lanae Rivers-Woods wraps you in from the first chapter with engaging, fully-developed characters, and a fast-moving plot. I was especially impressed that even the side characters in the book had personalities, they weren't just cardboard cut-outs. Several sections tug the heart strings, and the profusion of fine characters gives everyone who reads it someone to relate to. I hated to see this book end and I'm eagerly anticipating the next in the series.
