thechapterhouse 's review for:
Julie
by Catherine Marshall
I recently read Marshall's Christy book for the first time, and enjoyed it immensely. (I now understand why -- spoiler alert! -- Christy and Dr. MacNeill married! I'd long been a fan of the TV series' David Grantland, but after reading the book -- MacNeill fangirl all the way.) So when the opportunity arose to read Julie, my excitement definitely increased. More Catherine Marshall? (And, frankly, a deadline to do so?) Yes, please!
I absolutely adored Julie -- even more than Christy. I grew up reading everything I could get my hands on, and writing stories like nobody's business! To this day I love stories about journalists and writers of any kind, and she certainly fit that bill. That made it very easy to relate to Julie as a character; I found her likable and endearing, and saw a fair bit of myself in her. Her story brought back many memories of editing and writing for school papers (and even the Everett Herald at one point)!
This book definitely kept me up several nights in a row until I finished it. I look forward to re-reading it in years to come.
