Hearts and Dreams Series is Amazing!

I love this book! Katherine and Charoltte are two of my all-time favorite books. I read both of these classics when I was much younger but I still love them! I recommend both these amazing stories to anyone. They are romantic, interesting, thrilling, and historical. These two books will forever be among my favorite books.

A family saga begins in 1773 Boston.

This is the first book in the Hearts and Dreams series, a saga that traces the story of a fictional family throughout American history through the lives of four young women. Katherine Morrison is a teenage girl living in Boston just prior to the American Revolution. She sides with her patriot father, and that distances her from her loyalist mother. Kit, as she is called, desperarley wants to play a part in fighting British tyranny, but as a girl, she is expected to help with the household chores until she finds a suitable husband. When Kit spots a young man being chased by loyalists, she hides him in her room until they go away. She is drawn to the young man, whose name is Will. Although he leaves once the coast is clear, Kit hopes that they will meet again, because she is falling in love with him. This was a wonderful historical love story for teens who enjoy these types of books.

Like poetry on a stick!

...sorry i just couldn't resist! anyway, this is about one girls fight for freedom,love, and her right to speak her opinions. It redifines the word adventure. Freedom takes on a different form, and risk is shown in a different light. The courage and stength of the charcters are displayed flawlessly upon each page you turn. Katherine, portrays women's rights with fire and carisma. This is a book of love, courage, and how you have to follow your dreams but still mind others people's too. a heart felt novel, with a touch of untamed fire.

Great historical romance book!

I absolutely loved this book! I can't imagine how it could have been better. I laughed, cried, booed, and felt love at different parts of the book! Truly a must for anyone who likes adventure, romance, drama, and history! I didn't like Charlotte as much; I don't know why, but I'm trying to get Stephanie and Carrie. Who know's what they'll be like?

Indescribable!!!

My cousin gave me the first two books in this series. For some reason i read Charlotte first. It was so great, i couldn't imagine how Katherine could be better. But it turns out i couldn't put Katherine down. It's got to be the best book i've ever read! So if you enjoy history, romance, and adventure, then Katherine is THE book to read! So what are you waiting for? Pick up the book and READ IT!!! Hope you enjoy it as much as i did!
