annarella 's review for:
The Glittering Hour
by Iona Grey
A great love story, a well researched historical background, a writer who is a born storyteller.
There's a lot of thing I could write about this heart-wrenching and engaging page turner but to cut short a long story I would only that this was an epic reading experience that moved me to tears more than once.
This book is almost perfect: the well written characters, the historical background, the plot that flows seamlessly.
Some parts reminded me of Evelyn Waugh and Somerset Maugham. I can't say why but those are the names that come to my mind.
It was the first book I read by this author and it won't be the last.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
