3.0étoiles sur 5 Light and Interesting Reading, Fév 8 2003
Par Un client
Marion Chesney books seem to run hot or cold with many readers. Her characters are not fully developed in the books that I have read, but it does make for easy reading. This novel is the 2nd in the Waverly sister's saga. Three "orphans" raised by a man- hating Mrs. Waverly grow to adulthood with a very skewed view of society and gentlemen in particular. Though we never find out why Mrs. Waverly feels so strongly, we do come to understand she only wanted the three girls to assure company in her old age and set out to make them rivals to each other. She remained cold and emotionally remote throughout this book.

Frederica makes a delightful heroine because her views are strong in wanting to be an equal to men but not radically so (at least in today's standards). She seemed rational compared to Felicity, her younger sister. Lord Harry Danger (Danger??) is not dangerous at all but a true gentleman in every way seeking to capture Frederica's heart by solving the mystery of who the "orphans" really are. That mystery is NOT solved in this book. Maybe it is solved in the sequel about Felicity which I hope to obtain.

I enjoyed this book and hope to find the prequel also. There are some escapades involving drunks, thugs and thieves which add a rather odd element but seemingly the only way to introduce a little adventure into the dull Waverly's lives. Other characters are introduced but they are not fully developed -- one is Harry's mother -- very strange woman who does not appear to have a good head on her shoulders due to the constant bullying of her late husband.

Oh well, take the book as it is -- a light read with some appealing people.

This is one of the better Chesney's of the few I have read. The characters are appealing, especially Lord Harry Danger who is a delight. The book is very short however and would be much better longer and more developed. I enjoyed reading it though, even if the pleasure only lasted a few hours!

4.0étoiles sur 5 A Pleasant Conclusion, Mars 11 2001
Par Diana R. Sherman "zellandyne" (Granada Hills, CA USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This book is the third in the Waverly series. Three sisters are raised by their adoptive mother to disdain men. The third, and last, of the sisters still resists romance. However, there's a mystery about her adopted mother that she needs to solve. A fun, whimsical book.
