just not my kinda of book. Too simplistic, and the ending was a little "picture perfect" complete with a nice bow on top. I think I much prefer a unrequited love story.

Pirate Hunter is one of those great historical books which ties in a contemporary story – and still makes complete sense. Tom Morrisey didn’t spend too much time on one half of the story while neglecting the other half. The combination of the two stories was fun to read, as he would mirror the ending of the chapter with the beginning of the next.

It’s been a while since i read this, but i can still remember the characters and in pretty vivid detail. It really reminds of Clive Cussler books, with a little less language and innuendo (or complete lack thereof) Definitely a fun, engaging read. It’s not a life-changing book, but is certainly a memorable one.

Three stars.

I love Julie Klassen's book, she continually delivers Jane Austen-esque reads. Her books are both beautifully written and authentic to the times.

The Silent Governess is a great love story full of intrigue, mystery, and secrets that won't stay secret for long.

For those of us who can never get enough Jane in a unfortunately Jane-less world, this is the best and closest author you can read. Though, she still sustains her own voice and characters throughout the pages. The Silent Governess is not my favorite of Julie's Three books, but it's still one that is a must read for a Jane-ite.

THIS is an awesome book, I've always been one of those people who enjoys an "end of the world" movie. The Day After Tomorrow (an adventure type film about the coming of the second ice age) is one of my favorite movies.

It starts out INTENSE, this is not a book you want to start right before going to bed, you will want to keep reading until the rooster crows! The first expedition to Mars arrives back on earth only to find.... absolutely no one there to greet them. Every man, woman, child and even animals- are gone. They are the only ones left, then again, perhaps not. The astronauts then take it upon themselves to find out what happened to everyone on the planet.

I'm a sucker for a story (be it film, print, tv, whatever) about humans conquering a certain "Evil" and surviving hardship. This book includes all that and then some! Pick it up, and get ready for an insane ride!
