I noticed this novel was tagged as man-centric and woman diminishing, but I read the first few pages and it’s about life or a mystery in rustic Italy. I liked the narrator and wanted to read on. So maybe will hate it once it begins to rain bimbo’s. I’m giving it a try!

Victorian female protagonist with some sort of criminal past apprentices with a book binder. Love the bookish mystery of this book so far.

This man knows how to write! Such a fascinating start!

Romantic post apocalyptic fiction! Fun so far.

I read all the bad reviews! But l like that this character is 72 and having a mad adventure. Love her powers and telepathy. Not sure where all this is going! Not hard to read. Love the short chapters. Love hearing the thoughts of lobsters, goats and snakes. Love the crazy old people scuba diving and talking to aliens. But how could we know the aliens are good? A mysterious light goes a long way.

At last, literature!

This free dog and creatures rule a kingdom in the park.

Evil Yankees trick good beautiful southern girl. Fun to read.

Entertaining. I predict the liar is not really dead.

This writer manages to sustain interest using multiple alternative viewpoints and flashbacks. Somehow it works!

A magic carnival ride!

A great read! Pirates and history with a twist. Loooove this author!!

Romeo and Juliet ; good characters so far.

Good, readable, funny

Love this continuation of the story from deliverance Dane’s physics book! So good; written 10 years later. This is a great series and spellbinding writing! Magical! Unique! Historical!

Readable, fascinating and magical

More fun than ever. Laugh all the time.

A fun vacation book

This book is so good I’m eating it up and can’t put it down!

A tour de force! A magnificent, magical book. With surprises and a true heart that never fails despite all the tragedies of life. And funny! Really a fun and fast read. Wow!

It’s college level magic. So cool.

Still a fun read! The funny outweighs the science which can get pretty deep. Mr wizard meets ET.

Love this book!!!! I’m reading all of her books!

The main character asks a generic indigenous man about the tribes- Hopi,Navajo, Mohave that make up the Colorado river tribes; if they get along okay, and he says…..”they marry each other but don’t get along.”

Page 33! The women are quirky and independent and I think somehow that makes this literature! This writer can really turn a phrase and her writing is some kind of book magic! I’m enchanted!

Amazing! Can’t put it down!

Love this book!

I was prepared to hate this book, but it started to. Grab my attention. The books, the romance, the letters. Not sure where we are going with this story; but I am on the bibliophile team and willing to overlook the audacity of alternating chapters and the presumption of making Jane a character.

This book is so awesome! Can’t put it down and reads beautifully.
