I'm not exactly sure how to go about rating biographies. I'm not particularly a fan of non-fiction and I definitely think it's a genre that is a little harder to rate than fiction. This is due to many factors, the primary one being that there is no way I can verify or dispute the veracity of the text. The primary reason I read biographies is to find out more about authors or people in which I'm interested. Since, for me, this is the determining factor on which to judge the quality of a biography, it's hard to effectively rate it, so feel free to discount my rating. I felt Seymour included a lot of information in this biography of Mary Shelley. In fact, I learned a lot about her mother, her father, her husband, Percy Bysshe Shelley. Of course these individuals were huge influences in her life so I felt it was appropriate. The only thing I didn't particularly like about the book was that sometimes it was just confusing. This had a little to do with the jumping in referring to future and past dates particularly when discussing correspondence and a lot to do with sentence composition and wording choices. Overall, I think it was interesting and provided a lot of information. However, it was also fairly obvious that Seymour wasn't as impartial a historian as she could have been, definitely favoring Mary Shelley and attempting to convince her readers how Mary was often misunderstood and misrepresented in so many previous biographies or historical text.

The hero Heath is a successful software engineer and former youth offender. After a rough childhood his wealthy uncle offered him a place at his country estate where he ran a sort of rehabilitation scheme for troubled young boys. The heroine Bronte was the daughter of the estates housekeeper and they had become young friends. Years later, Heath has discovered his uncle has left him the estate in his will, although now it is very much in disrepair. He travels up to decide what to do with it and also get some closure on his past, where he meets Bronte again. Bronte is now a grown woman who has just returned from studies and travelling. She wants to help Heath restore the estate to it's former glory and get a job as the estate manager. She knows she has a job on her hands to convince Heath and as they spend time together they both have to fight the intense attraction between them. I'm sorry, but I really didn't like this story. I spent most of the book not really understanding what was going on. The narrative and dialogue seemed very erratic and seemed to jump around a lot, I found myself re-reading many sections to see if I had missed something. I didn't really care for either character, they were both too self absorbed in their own worlds. Also, the book is set in Yorkshire... the hero is called Heath... the heroine is called Bronte... that's about as subtle as a brick. A story that doesn't really make sense and moves slowly. Disappointing. Originally posted at http://everyday-is-the-same.blogspot....
