A review by xakyr
My Heart Belongs in Niagara Falls, New York by Amanda Barratt
2.0
This book review is part of my ongoing effort to review all the books in this series and basically keep up with them as they are released, unlike the Love Finds You series that I came into very late in the release schedule. Unfortunately, I was not that impressed by this book.
Adele was a major problem for me. She was so deceptive, manipulative, and often hypocritical. I have to wonder why she never sat down with her mother and had a frank conversation with her about the family financial situation. I understand that in those times it just wasn't done, but then too, a genteel lady never directly dealt with finances as Adele did. That reluctance made little sense to me in light of Adele's actions. I liked Drew a good bit, and he was the one that actually saved the book for me. His unwavering belief in God, especially in his time period and profession, was a bit refreshing to me.
The book really dragged, so it took me a while to get into it and actually want to read it. Based on that, I'm unsure if I would read another book by the author.
