Like No Other by Anna Jacobs

4.0

This book is so tough to rate because on one side, I found it difficult to put down. It' well-written and has some very interesting characters. So, objectively I can admire the author for creating such vivid characters and beautiful setting. But, and this is very important to me, it's a very depressing story. There isn't a single happy moment until the very end. Bad things keep happening to the heroine and you are left wondering how one person's life can be full of such unfortunate events one after the other. I thoroughly despised that and yet, read it in just two sittings. ;) As I said, very hard to rate. Anyway, I don't recommend it as recreational reading. There isn't a single fun thing about this tense tale of woes and miseries set in historical English village.
