annarella 's review for:
Secrets of the Chocolate House
by Paula Brackston
The problem with time travel and love history between a contemporary character and one in the past is that you cannot help comparing the story to Outlander. Being a huge Outlander fan it was what happened to me.
Xanthe is no Claire, she's weaker and sometimes I found hard to understand her. I think it would be great if there was some more character development and we were able to see more of her reasons.
On a general level Ms Brackston can surely write a novel that will keep you hooked till the end, with an engrossing and entertaining plot.
This novel can be read as a stand-alone but it would be better to start with the first instalment.
Recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Edelweiss for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
