A review by laurencarstensen
Ecos do Passado by Danielle Steel

2.0

Oh I have opinions. I picked this book up because it was advertised as historical fiction-ish. The first 180 pages were absolutely grating to read. Like nails on a chalk board. It was such a cliche love story and it made me sick. Love at first sight, pretty but smart, shunned by families because of love. It was awful. 0/5. Then over halfway through we FINALLY get into WWII material. I could stomach this part, however it was so poorly written and redundant. It made the female character seem so spineless and wishywashy when I know that’s not how she was meant to come off. I don’t know which of Danielle Steele’s ghost writers wrote this but they should consider a different profession.
