The Scarlet Thread is a really good book. Since I am a fan of mystery and romance books, this has the perfect mix for my taste. I will tell you five things I liked about this book. I really liked the plot of the story. It was really good. Angela, one of the main characters, was a major part in making this book good. The ending of the story really completes it; it doesn't just leave you hanging. I like the love story part of the book. It shows that two people who are truly in lovedon't forget each other even when separated. The second half of the story, the mystery, is well written and there are different twists to make you wonder, "What next?!" I had a hard time thinking of five things I didn't like about The Scarlet Thread, but I managed to come up with them. Clara, Steven's second wife whom he doesn't really love, is a real witch but a necessary part of the story. Steven cheated on Clara alot and I didn't really like that but she did deserve it in a way. Steven should've told his family about his first marriage to Angela. The final thing I didn't like was that Steven didn't tell angela he was a mafia memeber when they first met. Anybody who likes mystery and romance would like this book. If you like things that have to do with the mafia then you should read this book.
Superb Storytelling

This is the first book I've read by Evelyn Anthony, and I am impressed! The storyline was captivating - I could hardly wait to see what would happen next. She is remarkable at creating characters with depth and dialogue that doesn't sound canned, but as it would in real life. Each scene she chose to portray (as she painted various scenes from different people's points of view) greatly advanced the storyline and/or the character development. A great read!
