Book Reviews of Cold Mountain
Book Review: It ain't easy
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow, just finished it. I had seen the movie, and knew that I liked it, but had forgotten the ending by the time I got to the book. My first impression was that it was not going to be something that I was just going to breeze through. The pictures that Frazier paints are so in depth, but rather than become cumbersome, it drew me in even more. The character development was unlike anything that I've ever read. It made me long for simpler times and the day when I can get out of the rat race and settle onto a farm myself. Highly recommended.Book Review: Absolutely a great read!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have written a review about this book when I first read it and I must say it really is a wonderful fiction piece. I read this novel during the junior year of highschool, and now as a Graduate Student who has a more in-depth understanding on literary works, this books still continues to hold up and remains in my top-3 books of all time. Although some casual readers may be turned off by the length of it, I suggest stick with it and you will not be disappointed.Book Review: Modern literature
Summary: 5 Stars
I like to read books that have been made into movies to see how well it was adapted to the screen. Didn't watch the movie but thoroughly enjoyed reading the book. This is modern literature at its finest. BEAUTIFULLY written. I think it should be required reading in high school and/or college to give students a glimpse into life during the U. S. Civil War.Book Review: A beautiful novel
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a book that I didn't want to finish, not because it wasn't good, but because I loved reading it so much. A great narrative. It is beautifully written: eloquent, expressive, powerful, moving. This is a book to own, to keep on your shelf and re-read year after year.Book Review: Cold Mountain
Summary: 5 Stars
Beautifully poetic. You want to both nibble it slowly to make it last and swallow it whole in one sitting.
