Jane Kirkpatrick is an awesome writer. You feel like you are right there with the pioneering women in this novel.  I was sitting around the campfire, crying and laughing right along with them.  I could feel the courage that these women had to find to keep pressing forward on their journey.  I felt like I was at the finish line cheering them on, "You can do it!, You can do it!"  A fun and interesting read!

all of her books so far that I have read, I feel myself in the book and love them!  to me this is a good book when you can enjoy it that much, as the writer herself is absorbed writing it as well......her books give me a good feeling and love the characters....and the area she writes about.  Especially in this days, with all going on we need books that put us in a good place!  Waiting for the next one....

I love the manner in which Robyn Carr writes, she makes me feel like I am there and wishing that I really was. Her characters are almost like friends after you start reading her books. I've read four of her books so far and will end up buying and reading everything she writes

This is an on-the-edge-of-your-seat book.  Makes you feel like you are right there with her in this story.  Kittye Sharron is an AWESOME writer.  Can hardly wait for another book that she has written to read.

I love that Jane Kirkpatrick writes about these amazing stories of women long forgotten by time, and brings their stories to life for a new generation. I have enjoyed her stories over the years, and this one is just as great. Jane Pickett's story is one of courage and determination to follow a life long dream even when it didn't seem possible. The author draws the reader into the story and connects her with the characters, which makes it hard to put the book down. The historical side of this story is so vivid and brings American history to life. And then the fact that these characters were real people back in the 1870's, makes the story that much grander. If you're looking for a great historical fiction book, then pick up Jane Kirkpatrick's newest book, All She Left Behind! It's a great book to add to your personal library.

***I received this complimentary book from Revell Publishing. I was not required to write a positive review. All opinions are my own.

This is a well written book that takes you into the lives of the characters in such a way that you feel like you have been on the journey of personal, spiritual and emotional growth with each them. I feel like I've BEEN to Scotland and New Mexico with Bonny, Kieran, and their friends and family. I have to say that from start to finish, my only disappointment came when I searched to find more books by Norma Gail. This is the only book! I am now 'Following' her on Amazon and looking forward to reading more books by this spectacular author.

I just finished reading Old Crimes and Nursery Rhymes (White Mountains Romantic Mysteries Book 2) by Jane Firebaugh. It is said that sometimes sequels or the second in a series is not as good as the first. This is certainly not the case with this book. It had all the warmth, fun, mystery and thrills of the first in the series. It can also be read as a stand-alone because Jane has a way of letting you into the lives of her characters in such a realistic way, you feel you know them instantly. You are brought into Olivias house along with her beloved pets, Molly and Sheyna. You feel like you're sitting at her kitchen table along with Josh, eating veggie lasagna.

I respect Janes writing from both the male and female perspective. I guess because her style is similar to my own in this way, yet she has her own uniqueness. Her books are extremely realistic. Josh can be strong yet, sensitive to Olivias needs. While she is not afraid to lean on him for support while having her own strengths. To me thats how the genders are, different, yet equal.

I love the district dialect. Phrases such as Oh my stars and Bone tired are used, bringing even further realism to the book.

If you haven't read this book yet, purchase it for the holidaysand have a very happy Chrisnukkah!

The writer made you feel like you were there and made the characters feel so real.

The plot is captivating and original.  You get to know the characters. You have action, suspense, mystery, horror, humor and romance all within one book.  I was hoping the romance would happen faster but the slow developing budding romance made it so much more believable.

After reading all 8 books of the "Chop, Chop" series I feel like they are part of my life.  Like they are supposed to live right next door to me.  The author writes in a way where you feel like you are right there beside them the whole time.  I have cried while reading them, gotten really mad over a decision that they have made, and full of joy when something wonderful happened.  I highly recommend the complete series.  I am going to go back and re-read them all, they are so great that I want to re-live the moments myself.
