4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly interesting for a bargain-book-rack-paperback!, April 4 2000
This review is from: Tide Of Life (Paperback)
I'll admit that quite a few of the books that I manage to salvage from the bargain basement bookrack aren't exactly Pulitzer Prize winners, but this one surprised me.

Catherine Cookson (a native of England) is a new author to me, even though she published this story nearly twenty years ago. She writes a fictitious account of a girl who is orphaned and responsible for the care of her younger and sickly sister. The twosome find themselves as domestic help on the farm of a gentleman farmer. The farmer's wife is bed-ridden and dying from a prolonged illness. A regular soap opera progresses as the gentleman farmer contends with the moodiness of a bed-ridden wife and the two orphans find themselves growing up in the country.

Certainly, the story is not the century's blockbuster of all time, but sometimes all that it takes to please dear reader is a nice, clean, pleasant tale.... not always a heart-wrenching, on-the-edge-of-your-seat-thriller, or impossible mystery to occupy our time under the reading lamp.

If you are lucky enough to find the story in the bargain rack, don't hesitate to pick it up. It may be the best 25 cents that you ever spent.
