I was pleasantly surprised though and still loved it!

I'm glad you stuck it out and that you enjoyed it in the end. <br /><br />I thought Fortier story was very believable and didn't wait to finish the book before flipping to the Author's Note at the back.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15577757312285531026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568208905301554987.post-12733931223094090612010-10-08T20:46:02.844-07:002010-10-08T20:46:02.844-07:00I don't know I thought the other twin sister w...I don't know I thought the other twin sister was really going to get on my nerves...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568208905301554987.post-74838535468034111712010-10-08T20:27:22.991-07:002010-10-08T20:27:22.991-07:00Hi Jonita!
I nodded my head while reading "O...Hi Jonita!<br /><br />I nodded my head while reading "Once she comes to the realization that all is not what it initially appears to be in Siena, she is in too far to stop and becomes a part of an elaborate plot to right wrongs that were done long ago." Well said! I didn't have any trouble getting into it at all and I must concur that Juliet certainly is rich in detail and thoroughly researched!Scully Love Promohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03203580791813264483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1568208905301554987.post-64266583871240319382010-10-06T06:38:46.227-07:002010-10-06T06:38:46.227-07:00I'm so glad you enjoyed this one!

I love Shakespeare and <i>Romeo & Juliet</i>, though, and any parallels between a modern story and that classic would draw me in! <br /><br />And I definitely know where you're coming from regarding authors telling two identical stories in one book -- and how pointless it is.
