A review by tearsofphoenix
The Devil in the Corner by Patricia Elliott

4.0

4/5 Stars

The book was incredibly awesome. It has been long since I indulged into historical fiction/Classics. I missed going back in the era and enjoying every minute of it.

I borrowed this book from my friend, the cover had me hooked. I'm a little guilty at getting excited over covers. Really beautiful cover.

I was expecting a devil-Maud confrontation. Juliana possessed and lord knows what.

The book was none of those things, and all of the things good. I loved the element of mystery and haunting of "maybes".

Maybe I'm used to fast paced books that's why I felt it was a little slow and sort of anti climax. I'm not used to that slow taunting and in the end reveal sort of thing. But overall, wasn't that bad. A nice change of speed.

The characters!
I'm dying to talk about them, they were unique yet very real at the same time. I loved Juliana and Maud's relationship. The bond connected at the House. I love all the characters.

You will feel very emotion the author is trying to describe and that you are in their century, struggling with them.

Before, I go overboard. Just to summarize, I loved the book and loved every minute of it and would recommend it to anyone.

Poor book, the way its going to be passed around the class.
