Review:I love Kristin Hannah's style of writing, that being said...Distant Shores was not a favorite. The story, in my opinion, did not flow as nicely as her other novels. The characters were dull and very predictable. Read more

Review:This is a fascinating book. The hard times that the family experienced were hard to read. I was amazed at the resiliency of the mother and daughter but appalled by the mother's devotion to her husband despite his treatment of her. The descriptions of the Alaskan wilderness is beautiful.

Review:This book was okay, but not "unputdownable" as one person described it--for me, anyway. I thought there were too many coincidental meetings and happenings. There were a couple of surprise plot twists, but mostly predictable. Read more

Review:If I had based my review on the characters alone, especially for the first quarter of the book, I would have hated it. There was a love triangle . . . or actually a love square and a whole lot of insta love. Winona hated her sister for dating a guy (Luke) that she was in love with, despite the fact that neither Vivi Ann, nor Luke, even knew about Winona's feelings. Vivi Ann agrees to marry Luke even though she doesn't love him and of course she begins cheating on him with the new ranch hand, Dal... Read more

Review:This is the fourth Kristin Hannah book that I have read and I equally enjoyed all of them! I am hooked on this author because, the books catch my interest right from the start. It's like getting lost in the book, as if I am a part of it and I don't want to finish them! Read more

Review:The book was good, easy read, but there were some predictable story lines and I wish the ending was different. I think that it was a little unbelievable the relationship between the main character and the child...especially if she has so much practice and history in the field...she would know not to get so attached.

I think it's a good story about family and the shapes that family can come in, extended, tight, wild, harsh, and above all loving. Read more

Review:Once again Kristin Hannah has captivated my attention. I rarely even read the synopsis of her books these days because after the first two or three books I realized that I am never disappointed. I've read most of her books and it's always true. You can't go wrong reading this book or any other Kristin Hannah book. Read more

Review:Such a warming novel describing the village life in Scotland. I literally couldn't put the book away. It contains both thriller and romance which !made it much more interesting and to top it all,Graham is a great narrator Read more

Review:A great story. The question is "why do people betray?" The great irony is that the traitors are, in important ways, better than victims of their betrayal. And, betrayers may betray their nation, while maintaining loyalty to their friends. George Smiley comes to some of the same conclusions about all this that are reached by Stephen Maturin in the Patrick O' Brian novels I have enjoyed so much. Read more
