The author manages to weave different storylines into this novel and I really cared about what happened to the main character, Mattie. Well written and a good mix of historical fiction, murder mystery and romance. From memory I think there is a childbirth scene that may be a bit offputting for the squeamish! Would be on my list of recommended reads too.Anne Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17201098862412982163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7735223299018836451.post-72938995946799751172012-05-19T12:58:50.251+01:002012-05-19T12:58:50.251+01:00I've read a few pages of Hidden and it is a bo...I've read a few pages of Hidden and it is a book that I want to read. <br /><br />I thought After the Snow was excellent but it is also a very haunting and thought-provoking read. I'd also say readers should be warned that it really is edgy and be prepared for some horrible scenes. My review of it will be on the blog next week.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05628601066057750860noreply@blogger.com
