"A Suitor for Jenny" By Margaret Brownley
4. November 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
Thanks to booksneeze for the book to review, and an especially HUGE thank you to Kristina for reading and reviewing this book which was sent to me by mistake!
A Suitor For Jenny tells the story of Jenny and her two sisters. When her parents die, Jenny takes her two sisters to Rocky Creek for a new beginning. Not only, Rocky Creek is known as a place with many eligible bachelors. Perfect for Jenny to find husbands for her two sisters. Of course, as Jenny seeks proper matches for her sisters, nothing turns out the way she hopes or plans.
This was an enjoyable book. As a woman with two younger sisters, it did hit a chord in my own personal experience. It explores several important themes, most notably the issue of controlling our own lives versus allowing God control and resting in His peace. The other big one was exploring grief and guilt and how these can separate us from God if we let them. As a story, it was heart warming and cute, and contained interesting historical details. One criticism is that either by intent, or by accident, the plot of the book is obvious from the beginning. No surprises here, but sometimes thats OK. As a side note, I also enjoyed how Brownley mixed in the etiquette rules of the time surrounding marriage.
Conclusion: 3.5 Stars. Conditionally recommended (you need to like the genre of historical romance). Definitely for women.

Historical Fiction
8. November 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
A Suitor for Jenny written by Margaret Brownley, is a love story set in the old west town of Rocky Creek. Jenny Higgins is the oldest sister of three girls and because of a rough past, feels responsible for the future of her younger sisters. She has devised a plan to get her sisters married to men who will be the best possible husbands.
A Suitor for Jenny is another story of how God's plan works best for us even when we can't imagine anything other than our Plan A. The book is very entertaining and leads us through several amusing mishaps that just may have reminded me of a few "courting" stories of my own.
I wouldn't have thought that I would enjoy a historical novel as much as I did this one. In fact, because it is a book in a series, I will seek to read the other books, too.
The book is very well written and gives good advice without being "preachy". I would encourage anyone who is in the mood for a quick entertaining read to purchase this book and others in the series, as well.
I was given a copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion of the book.
