This is the first book by danielle steel i have read, and if any of her other books are like this, she is a highly overrated author. The story was poorly crafted, and she was unable to create characters with any real emotion that i could bring myself to care about. She constantly wrote of how mean one character was, but never had said character do anything to make the claim have substance. Entire chapters could have been cut and the story would have read the same. Sentences are not worded well or concise, and it was difficult to enjoy any of the story as the storyline was also predictable. Quite a disappointment.

El precio elevado para lo predecible de la novela es buena pero para una autora como ella ya hay muchos novelas asi

Best Book I’ve Read In A Long Time

Loved this book couldn't stop reading it what a wonderful family history and how she survived it all and loved the ending too will read again soon and buy in hardback too

Would highly recommend as I couldn't put it down!

Waste of time and money. I dumped it a couple of hundred pages in. I could swear I have read the exact same story a few decades ago but then maybe it's just the utter predictability.

Predictable

Fun reading,

So predictable.... so verbose.... too many insignificant details.... a good book for a reader who doesn't need a challenge.

Very well written historical romance, the author takes you back in time and you feel like you are part of the story.
