I am a teacher, and my ninth-grade students are reading this book. I am reminded again why Steinbeck is considered one of our greatest writers!

Finally finished this book, which I originally started more than a year ago. I had read the first couple chapters and found them entertaining, but apparently not enough to hold my attention at the time. I'm glad I picked it back up again, and that I persevered and read through it, because the final 1/3 of the book, set in Bali, was the best part of the story for me. What I enjoyed most about this book was her stories about the people she makes friends with along the way. She's really good at describing what's most interesting about people, all the way down to the way they talk and other offbeat details about them. All the parts about Ketut Liyer, the Balinese medicine man, are the best example of this. The chapter of him telling his life story is in my opinion the best part of the whole book.

I wish I had tried to remember this book a little bit more before I bought it. This was never one of my favorites in the Effington series though it is a perfectly serviceable read. The very beginning of the book has Gillian proposing marriage to Richard Shelton, Earl of Shelbrooke. She has been left an inheritance of magnificent proportions but can only receive it if she is married before she turns 30, which is in two months. Richard is astonished, but intrigued. Gillian is his best friend's sister, a widow (who refreshingly, seems to have had a quite normal sex life with her husband)who he has never been interested in. Actually, Richard has spent the last several years trying to recoup his family fortunes by painting under an assumed name (selling paintings, of course, being beneath the dignity of an earl). By marrying Gillian, he could get half of her fortune, save his family's crumbling home, pay off his father's debts and give his four sisters dowries. But neither is particularly interested in marrying without love. The story that ensues is fun but, as I mentioned in the beginning, not one of my favorite Alexander reads.

This book really showed again the people and times through the eyes of Mark Twains wit adn wisdom. That he lived the life of say Little Big Man stands out so well from getting his brother to take him along to the job or roles he played it was great. This was a mix of wild west and people who didn't fit described in excellent detail.

I had about a chapter and a half left and gave up. Living right here in the setting of the story, historically ,it rocks! However, I found it difficult to keep up with characters ... who went with who, etc. It was a really good, but sad book. Unfathomable to me, families being torn apart as they were in slave times, children from their parents, husbands and wives. Humanity is such a precious, precious thing and should always be treated as such.

I absolutely loved this book. Had a great sense of humour. The chemistry between Jaz and Vayl was electric, you just know that at some point they'll become more than just work collegues, they genuinely care about each other, they just can't bring themselves to say it out loud. A great array of supporting characters as well. Vayl is a brilliant character, a 291 year old vampire - who's afraid of snakes. Oddly old fashioned and used to keeping everyone at arms length but he's very protective of Jaz. Jaz is just plain crazy!!! I still can't figure out what she really is. Can't wait to read the second book in the series.
