The book drew me in and kept me reading. I started it yesterday morning & finished it in the afternoon, because I HAD to know what happened. It was not what I expected, and I really enjoyed all but a couple of things in it. Those are things I thought could have been added, but they weren't necessary to the story...just something I would have liked.I have now read all of Eileen Goudge's books our library stocks, so I guess I'll have to get others on inter-library loan. This was actually my first book by Eileen Goudge but it will absolutely not be my last.The Diary was a beautiful love story that evoked so many different emotions for me while reading. I adored Elizabeth and tore through the pages as I followed her journey to true love. I was angry for her when her community ostrocized her at a certain point and my heart beat rapidly while reading the last few pages as the story came to its unpredictable but amazing conclusion. I LOVED the ending.
This was such a sweet love story! Great book, I read in a day.
