About book Glamorous Illusions (2012)

Hott Synopsis:Shock. Absolute, staggering, shock.Cora can’t believe that she’s not the person she thought. Her father isn’t the man she thought. Her mother could have done something so degrading.Her life changes absolutely when she arrives home from Normal School, halfway to her teaching certificate, to find her father has had a stroke. How can God ever help them recover from this devastation?Oh, but He does provide an answer. Not the one Cora had anticipated or hoped for but an answer. She’s to have a Grand Tour with siblings she doesn’t know.Now, Cora must cope with a new family that doesn’t want her, a new name she’s not prepared for, and admittance into a world she’s never considered.Will she be able to navigate all of these changes and the fear of leaving behind the only life she’s ever know and still keep God at the forefront?Hott Review:I don’t enjoy books like this. I grabbed the second book in the series, Grave Consequences, thinking it a mystery then decided that I needed to read this first. I almost didn’t when I realized it was really a book about life and not just a sweet inspiration romance or mystery.What I liked: WOW. Just WOW! I was completely drawn into this book. I just couldn’t out it down – and when I was unable to read, I was thinking about it. The plot and imagery are so real you feel transported through time! Amazing!What I didn’t like: Honestly, I’m glad this series is in three books, but I can’t imagine not reading all of them. If I’d realized that is was essentially one book cut into three books of 400+ pages each I probably wouldn’t have started this series yet, I feel that I’d be missing something integral if I’d not taken this journey with Cora.More…Author: Lisa Tawn BergrenSource: Kindle Free Read 6/2012Grade: AAges: 16+Steam: YASetting: Montanna & then EuropeSeries: Grand Tour #1 I really enjoyed this story from the first page to the last! Because I was reading it on my eReader, I didn't realize it was the last page until it was over and I didn't want it to be. Solid writing, good plot and I like how Cora keeps having to reexamine her purpose in life and what to do with the changes in her life. She is looking at some things I've thought of and I'm appreciating the insights. What if our fortunes change? Do they have to change us? If we go from nothing to having all our needs met, how does that change us and our relationship with God and should it? I look forward to reading the rest of the story and am sad I have to wait while the book is checked out to someone else.

Great story! I really find myself hating Vivian and not a Pierre fan either! Can't wait to start #2!

Not the expected storyline, nice blend of history and fun. The ending came sooner than expected.

Enjoyable, but wasn't anticipating it being a series.
