A review by samhend101
Whispers of the Heart by Jann Rowland
4.0
This is more 3.5 for me and it is painful for me to write this review, as I am such a huge fan of JR. As much as I liked reading it, I ended with an -oh well, there's that- feeling.
For such a long book, nothing much really happens. No real dramatic angst, it kind of lalala plodded along and IMHO there was a LOT of repetitive phrases and thoughts, which were so unnecessary. Like being hit over the head with a bat, we get it... blah blah...
However, it is a beautiful, calm read, and I do recommend it for that.
2021 reread. While I appreciated this writing and story a little more this time around, it is still not his best. Almost boring. And the Bingley Georgiana thing was just not believable.
Don't think I will reread again.
