Piece About Books The Secret Wife

An engrossing love story and a thoroughly entertaining historical novel.

Wow! I adored this book! I studied A Level History as a teenager and since then have had a real fascination with Russia and Russian history, so I jumped at the chance to read this book. Im not sure Im going to be able to describe just how much I enjoyed it!The Secret Wife has a dual storyline and is set in Russia from 1914 onwards and present day America. Told through the eyes of Kitty Fisher, who has fled from Britain to her great-grandfathers cabin in America following relationship

Research does not a enthralling story make. I much preferred the note from the author at the end to the novel itself! I thought the dialogue awkward and clumsy and too much unnecessary information was wedged in. I won't read more by this author if this is her usual style, but if she writes a book the way she wrote her note and acknowledgements then I would. I suspect her natural style is much more colloquial and fun that this. The work showed, and not in a good way.

Just so many feels!The Secret Wife is a book that made me realize two things:1) I really should read more historical fiction, and2) I MUST check Gill Paul's previous books as I TOTALLY loved this one!The Secret Wife is one of these beautifully written, exceptional books you just don't know how to review. I love it so much I fear no matter what I say it won't do the book justice.

The Secret Wife by Gill Paul is a 2016 Avon publication. This book is an amazing, epic love story, unlike any Ive read in a long time!When Kitty Fischer makes a shocking discovery about her life and marriage, she flees England in search of the property in the Adirondacks she recently inherited. The place is in horrible disrepair, but she sets to work restoring it, while searching out her personal connection to her great-grandfather, Dmitri, the original owner of the property. This is a journey

I could not get into this story at all. It felt like there was no character development and because of that the story felt completely fake and made the characters unlikable. Not to mention the fact that the characters in this story said and did things that seemed so out of the norm of what any rational person would do or say. I had to force myself to finish this book.

This is a big ... fat ... preposterous ... WHAT IF. But a good read nevertheless.A mystery built around the Romanovs of Russia. A fantasy built around one of the daughter's, Tatiana's, romances with a soldier. And then it becomes a story within a story when Kitty Fischer, one of the descendants, inherits a remote cottage at a lake and tries to find out more about her great-grandfather. Decide on the Romanoff connection as the axle, and then add the rest of the story in the American idiom, and
