Customer Reviews

This Book was a Delight!

Barbara Metzger is always a treat! Her stories are fun and full of wit, not to mention lovable (and believable) characters. If you haven't read her yet, may I suggest "The Diamond Key". It was my first B. Metzger and turned me into an instant fan!This was my first by Ms. Porter but most definitely not my last. She writes in the style of Ms. Putney, only with more attention to detail of the period. "The Road to Ruin" was very well written with a beginning that draws the reader instantly into the story, characters that you immediately fall in love with, dialogue that is very well written, and secondary characters that you definitely want to know more about. The "Misunderstanding" was a bit drawn out, but I found it very difficult to put this book down and once it was over, I missed it. A true test of an excellently written book and an exceptional author!
