Books We Love Blurbathon, Genesee by Juliet Waldron

Before "The Wild, Wild West," there was a "Wild, Wild East." In honor of


our First President, I'm sharing a book about a love story set

during America's revolutionary war as it happened in upstate New

York, a place which was then full of Indians and many different settler

traditions.



(Tried to place cover here.)



GENESEE by Juliet Waldron is an extraordinary book about love, hardship

and prejudice. It's well written and full of wonderful characters. Even

though they have many differences, Genesee and Alexander are true

kindred spirits. Ms. Waldron keeps you enthralled by, a little at a

time, giving tantalizing tidbits of their origins. This story isn't

sugarcoated, which is really refreshing. There are some instances of

violence, but they're brief and handled well. Anyone who enjoys an

honest, realistic story will love this one. Renee Burnette, Amazon

Reviewer



"Genesee is a fascinating look into the early life of upstate New

York during the [American Revolution]. Juliet Waldron makes you feel as

if you're experiencing Genesee's trials and tribulations right

alongside her…elements that meld very effectively to make this

outstanding story one well worth reading over and over."

~ Lani Roberts

Affaire de Coeur



`. . . The story of confidence in one's self, faith in love and the

resilience of the human spirit, "Genesee" is an entertaining

romantic adventure set in a young America, but its lessons are

timeless.'

Thursday - Who I'm reading

Today I'll be talking about historical novels and one masterful writer of those I've been reading lately. I do read a lot and with the Kindle my reading has increased by leaps and bounds. Though I've been accused by my parents years ago of inhaling books, I do remember a lot of what I read and I re-read books. One of the new authors I've discovered is Juliet Waldron. She writes historical novels that make you feel you are living in the era she has chosen to write about and you are living the  lives of the characters. I haven't read all her books, but I will.

If you want to know more about the author and her books the following will take you to her author page andyou can explore her books. http://www.amazon.com/Juliet-Waldron/e/B004HIX4GS/ref=sr_tc_2_rm?qid=1340890739&sr=1-2-ent

Now to the one's I've read so far. Genesee is a story of a woman who had been captured by the Indians as a child and what happens after she's returned. Some of the characters are not nice to her but she perserveres and she finds a hero worthy of her.

Mozart's Wife was enthralling. I saw Amadeus on Broadway and also the movie, but the story of Mozart's wife brings a whole new picture to this musical genius' life and his music. She's written a new one called My Mozart that I'll be buying soon.

I've also read Red Magic. The time is about the same as Mozart's Wife and until I read Mozart's Wife I didn't know of the connection.

If you like history with a touch of romance, I'd definitely take a look at Juliet's Amazon page and find books that are well written and will carry you to a different era.
