Summers at Castle Auburn by Sharon Shinn

medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes

5.0

incredibly sweet and whimsical, I read this when I was a kid and the story is still imprinted in my blood. it’s lyrical in prose and utterly romantic. though I will say the actual romance is few and far between (no complaints from me).

“Fall came late that year as though summer, idle intransigent girl that she was, could not summon the golden strength to rise from her bed along our hills and meadows”
