Jennifer Donnelly's first part, "The Tea Rose" was the one I really enjoyed. Both Part II and III are good, but nothing exceptional.The story is dragging in parts. I could not decide if I like the charactrs or not. I could not even identify myself with any of them.The whole subject of the German ...
2.5 Stars.Deep Blue was an interesting read, but it just didn't capture my attention and send me into gushing episodes whilst I was reading. The first hundred pages was very good, I enjoyed it, even though it took a long time just to get to one key plot point, but I liked what was developing. I t...
Overall, I'd give this one 3 1/2 stars. This was a 4, almost 5, star book at times but the ending made it fall flat. There's still one plot twist that was so groan-worthy I can't believe it was in there. Ugh. Loved The Tea Rose, liked The Winter Rose, and was glad I read this one. Still, I'm sort...

I love the merman Blu i just wish he was in i...
Δεν έχω λόγια για να εκφράσω πόσο πολύ μου άρεσε και με συγκίνησε αυτό το βιβλίο.Όταν το ξεκίνησα ήμουν κάπως καχύποπτη καθώς το πρώτο βιβλίο της Ντόνελι, οι Επαναστατημένες ζωές δεν με είχε ενθουσιάσει τόσο.Το «Βόρειο σέλας» όμως, παρόλο που από τους περισσότερους θεωρείται το λιγότερο καλό βιβλ...
Είναι εξαιρετικά σπάνιο στις μέρες μας να πέσει στα χέρια σου κάποιο βιβλίο, τόσο καλογραμμένο που να σου φέρνει στο νου βιβλία και συγγραφείς κάποιας άλλης εποχής. Kαι όμως, με χαρά και έκπληξη θα διαπιστώσει κανείς πως η κυρία Donnelly και τα βιβλία της, έχουν αυτή τη μαγική ικανότητα. Να σου μ...
Chi ama il romanzo storico ama Jennifer Donnelly.L’affermazione può sembrare forte, ma in questo caso è più che giustificata. Chi già conosce questa scrittrice sa benissimo di cosa si sta parlando, chi ancora non ha avuto il piacere di incontrarla colga la prima occasione per farlo.Dopo aver deli...
