Another day, another journal…
Alas, I’ve finished this one before the fourth had a chance to arrive. And so, my lazy days with Emma are drawing to a close. For now.
Set in the 1880’s in a tiny English village, these personal tales of Emma M. Lion’s spirited encounters and innermost thoughts are a delight. I love the romance, the quirk, the inexplicable little touches of the otherworldly (e.g. the ghost that haunts their neighborhood). Perfection.
Volume 2 has the honor of being my favorite so far but with so many literary references to Ralph Waldo Emerson (and the tease of an almost-kiss!), Volume 3 isn’t far behind.
