I was unable to review this book because of a conflict in my schedule. Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused the publisher or the author of the work. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to review for you and I look forward to reviewing for you in the future.

This book surprised me on many levels - it was beautifully written and contained a story that isn't used over and over again. It is a unique story with not many huge surprises but many turn and twists. It is a story that doesn't have the typical up and downs but kind of stays on level but there still something intriguing about it that keeps threader interested and rooting for little gold and her siblings.

I can't say I liked this too much. The story moved very slowly and felt very repetitive; after a while I was sick of the description of Malcy having an asthma attack. Peggy was a bit interesting, but undeveloped, and I was left wanting a bit more excitement from her life. But most of these issues are surmountable as Rogers continues to write more books.
