The best book I have ever read, I think. It's been a few years. I need to read it again. You have to read it, it won't let you down!

This book didn't disappoint from start to end.

I've had this book on my bookshelf at home for years, preferring to read books on my ereader, but I'm glad commonsense crept in and I finally read it! What a fantastic story! Tamara McKinley never fails to write a good story.

When this book was recommended to me, I thought - oh, no, it's definitely not my type of reading, but the owner of the book insisted it was nothing like I have ever read. And now I totally agree with her. It's not some pink balloon of sugar life, it's about Australia and the tough life there, about women who have to live and fight for their lives all by themselves; it's about love and sacrifices; about how cruel the nature of people can be. I loved every part of this book. I loved it so much

Just picked it up from my mom's bookshelf and didn't expect much of it - in the end I couldn't put it down and it made me cry. Such a beautiful piece, it really draws gorgeous images in your mind. Lovely.
