This one was sent in by Aislinn. Looks good! Thanks, Aislinn!


TITLE: Deep In The Valley
AUTHOR: Robyn Carr
GENRE: Contemporary Fiction

DEEP IN THE VALLEY shares the day to day happenings of the Grace Valley inhabitants who can count among their townsfolk those who are loopily odd and charmingly eccentric, those who are pillars of the community and irreplaceable, and those who are bottom-of-the-barrel bad, so bad even prayer is wasted on them.
The story focuses on June, a doctor born and brought up in Grace Valley, and the people who live there. The busy practice soon becomes very busy, and so she hires another doctor, John Stone, as her partner.
I felt drawn into the town of Grace Valley and it was a wonderful experience.
I thought that too many characters would make it hard to keep track of who was who but it did not happen. It made it all the more real. I would recommend this book as a heart warming story that will touch you and maybe think about moving to a small town like Grace Valley.

[> Thanks for posting this Sylvia. I'd forgotten that I submitted and since we don't actually use the email where you sent the notice, I only saw it two days ago. I know this book isn't all that exciting but I enjoyed the quirkiness of the small towns inhabitants. Hopefully someone else will as well. -- Aislinn, 16:59:57 02/11/05 Fri

[> I tried to get this from the library today, but no joy. I swear our library is 'so pants!' I had a list of 7 books, from this board and the Rec Reading board, and they didn't have any, but they had the 2nd or third of various series. grrrr. Okay rant over, thanks for the review, I'll keep looking out for this. -- Margy, 10:08:04 02/16/05 Wed

[> I read these three books and enjoyed them very much. It got me on a Robyn Carr kick so I also read everything my library system had of her books...about 13 books. She also writes good historical type romance books, but from an earlier era than Outlander...these are mostly the Restoration period after Cromwell's death and this is a very interesting time. It makes the 1740s seem almost modern in comparison. -- Jan R, 17:13:16 04/19/05 Tue
