Susanna Kearsley is one of my all time favorite authors! I was able to meet her shortly after this book came out. She is as wonderful in person as her writing is.
This book follows the traditional style of Kearsley's featuring a dual timeline plot. Her writing is extremely descriptive in a way that makes the reader feel like they are there. However, this book was a bit different. This book featured a main character with Aspergers.
I loved that she tied in something that is considered a disability in most people's eyes, and made it a strength in this book. It showed how those with Aspergers think differently, and are very gifted in some areas.
All in all it was a very sweet book. I loved the dual timeline, and I feel in love with the characters. So much so that when it ended I couldn't decide if I liked the ending. I just wanted to book to continue.
I really feel like Kearsley out did herself with this book.
