I have read the others, I just didn't have the time to review them all as they were from the library. I'd actually read A Ring of Endless Light a few years ago and loved it, but rereading it along with the others in the series really added something to it. And I read the ending about five times!Lainahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00134705793566699951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4008477639797883693.post-44887421943830478972009-07-28T13:36:00.534-06:002009-07-28T13:36:00.534-06:00How lovely to find a review of this old favorite o...How lovely to find a review of this old favorite of mine! I adore this series and it seems they didn't get as much love as her other books. I know reviews of the rest of the series would be gushy but I would read them! I love all of the books. Have you read A RING OF ENDLESS LIGHT yet? That one is particularly wonderful. Thanks for the review!Angiegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00353676756221692186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4008477639797883693.post-28176146894464064662009-07-12T12:50:34.720-06:002009-07-12T12:50:34.720-06:00Iryna: Really?

The third one was a bit difficilt for me, but it was in third-person and switching from first to third is always hard for me. <br /><br />Sadako: Well, you have to remember it was set in like the fifties or earlier. It was published in 1960, so... and Vicky was only 13 or so in the first one, so we were seeing things through her eyes.Lainahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00134705793566699951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4008477639797883693.post-75268644909010254222009-07-10T16:09:20.442-06:002009-07-10T16:09:20.442-06:00I liked this book--I reread it recently, but I did...I liked this book--I reread it recently, but I did find it a little too G-rated at times. Like, very sentimental and white-washed.
