4.0étoiles sur 5 Epic and Loooong Romance!, Mai 18 2004
Par ellejir "ellejir" (Virginia, United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
Ce commentaire est de: Shanna Mm (Mass Market Paperback)
At well over 600 pages, this book is much longer than your average romance novel and it is packed with location changes and secondary characters, mysteries and misunderstandings. Part of the action takes place near Richmond Virginia and I was stunned at the research that must have gone into the book when I realized that the throw-away locations of roads that they took and inns at which they stopped were *accurate*!
The best part of the book was the hero, Ruark. He was a fabulous character who made the best of everything that life threw at him. The character of Shanna was more problematic for me (hence only 4 stars). Frankly, she was a selfish, self-pitying, manipulative, lying brat at the beginning of the book and she took almost 600 pages to realize that Ruark's love was more precious than her pride and her fancy dresses. Of course, she was *drop-dead* beautiful, but how on earth did she ever get a fantastic guy like Ruark to fall in love with her? She *slowly* matures during the course of the book, but she is so immature and selfish during the initial part of the story than I could not ever really like her. (A minority opinion, perhaps, since many other reviewers *loved* the character of Shanna.) Alot of her behavior is excused by other characters because she was "spoiled" (yeah, no kidding) or "very young" (actually she was 21 or 22 years old, not really all that young). Her only other good characteristics (besides her stunning beauty) were her plucky spirit and her intermittent concern for the villagers on her father's island (she also rides very well.) In her favor, she is a strong character--consistent and rarely boring, even when she is most annoying.
Despite my reservations about Shanna, this is a very good book.
The plot is very far-fetched but none the less vastly entertaining, covering lots of ground before Shanna and Ruark can finally admit their love to each other and everyone else. The dialogue is rather stilted, but perhaps that is a nod to the Georgian period setting.
I enjoyed this book but preferred "The Windflower" by Laura London or "The Hidden Heart" by Laura Kinsale (both excellent sea adventure/pirate books!)

5.0étoiles sur 5 Simply put..., Fév 25 2008
Ce commentaire est de: Shanna Mm (Mass Market Paperback)
This is the best romantic novel ever written. Period.

Judith McNaught (Whitney, My Love), Jude Devereaux (A Knight in Shining Armor), and Johanna Lindsey may presume, but none touch The Queen, may she rest in peace. Even after all these years, Shanna still reigns supreme.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Not what I had expected of a romantic novel - Better!, Mai 5 2004
Par Un client
Ce commentaire est de: Shanna Mm (Mass Market Paperback)
Before this book was given to me, I wouldn't have dared to touch a "romantic" novel! Ms. Woodiwiss definitely cleared my library space for many of her other novels soon after I read Shanna! I was hooked. Shanna gave me the escape that I needed and it certainly wasn't as corny as I had expected a novel of this category to be. Ms. Woodiwiss' heroines are strong, slightly vulnerable and quite determined to reach whatever goals they have set for themselves and they do so successfully. Those goals could mean escape from captivity, marriage to a desired beau, reclaiming due property, etc. Her stories have it all and her prose also sets the tone perfectly for the period. I also highly recommend The Wolf and The Dove as well as The Flame and The Flower.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Read it for the characters...
Kathleen Woodiwiss does it again -- creating an unforgettable romantic duo. This book is LONG, however, and should be read at one's leisure (and you will need lots of it). Lisez davantage

4.0étoiles sur 5 Definitely Kathleen's best novel
I find that most Kathleen Woodiwiss novels are extremely over-written, with way too much detail & plots that move along slooooowly...(and don't have enough romance!)... Lisez davantage

5.0étoiles sur 5 wow!
I had bought the book at a garage sale along with other romance novels. It had sat on my shelf for a few years because for a romance its lenghth was a bit intimidating. Lisez davantage

I hated this book! I thought it was stupid, boring, and quite frankly, I trashed it halfway through reading it. I could not and did not even want to finish the damn thing! Lisez davantage

1.0étoiles sur 5 Shanna is annoying.
I found the heroine annoying, and unreasonable. Would not purchase another Woodiwess (other books contribute to this decision).

well, over 100 reviews and almost all of them 5 stars. That says it all! This is the number one best romance novel of all time. Even Woodiwiss can't top it. Lisez davantage
