I enjoyed reading this novel. I did skipped a few pages with the other characters since i was only interested in Cornelius, Stephanie, Jenny, and Mal.
I hope the author writes a sequel, for i would love to know what happened to Jenny and Thomas.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this novel. The characters are so real and different from each other and interesting that I was truly sorry when I reached the end of this book. The book is well constructed, too.

I really enjoyed reading this novel.  The US Virgin Islands were unknown to me until I read Chasing Paradise.  I loved learning about this spot in the Caribbean, often thinking of the island as a character in this book which I think is great.  This is not the genre of novel that I tend to read but I found myself staying up on a Friday evening plowing through most of it.  It made me chuckle and brought tears to my eyes on several occasions.  The characters were developed in such a way that I had a lot of empathy for them even when they made poor choices.

Enjoyed reading this novel, but felt it was too long. It was less than gripping, but still I wanted to read it to the end. I just wish the end would have come sooner.

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. There weren't any unnecessary delays in delivering pertinent information to the reader. I did not give it 5 stars because the heroine narrowly escaped death just too often leaving me thinking, "Not one of those again." Also, the layout of the text can be better. I read the Kindle edition, so I don't know what the printed text looks like. The problem is that one would be reading a piece of test and then in the very next paragraph the scene changes. I would have liked some topographical indication that the scene is changing. However, that did not stop me from purchasing the rest of the series.

I enjoyed reading this novel.  Hanna has a light entertaining touch that allows you to enjoy the books that she writes.  Perfect read for after that long, exhausting day or week when your mind simply cannot absorb another complicated detail and needs something soothing and undemanding to allow you to relax and smile!

The Bride Price by Buchi Emecheta is an insightful novel into the life of the Ibo people of Nigeria.  Although the novel made me angry when I read it, I enjoyed the novels historical correctness whether I like it or not  this is the way women were treated at this point in time.  This novel gave  me a wake up call as to how far things have come sense this time.  No  longer are we objects to be inherited by our dead brothers relatives or  destine to marry who our small town chooses for us whether we love then or  not.  The story I think would have had a much better ending if Aku-nna  could have made it.  So that she could prove her culture's old  superstitions wrong. All in all, I would recommend this book to any one  that would enjoy a good story. Also it is a quick read, the novel keeps you  entertained by the use of vivid images and a direct story line to follow so  no one can get lost.  This novel is similar in nature to Things Fall Apart  which has one character names Oknkowo which is also used in the Bride  price, this might suggest that he was a real man from that culture.

I enjoyed this novel. It was very realistic in the sense of losing love working to rekindling that love.

I really enjoyed this novel.  The author did a very realistic timepiece set at the end of World War Two.  I don't know how much correspondence occurred between Oppenhiemer and Einstein, but she was "spot on" in her characterization of J. Edgar Hoover.  The author's handling of the relationships between the archaeologist and her father and the romantic interest with the ex-Lt/Assoc. Prof. were well done.  I think that I would enjoy reading another novel by this author in the same vein.  There was just enough of the supernatural added to make this not quite believe able but enjoyable.

But once I did I enjoyed it. There were several places where I felt there was a lot of material just put in to make it longer. I got kind of lost in some of those areas until I could get back into the main part of the story. It was easy to become vested in these peoples' lives. I am very glad that I read this novel.

I enjoyed reading this novel.  I thought that the insight into the mind of a Muslim with high morals and a willingness to lay his life on the line was very well done.
