Book Reviews of Once in Every Life
Book Review: It was a good read, but...
Summary: 3 Stars
I really liked the book, however, there were 2 things that bothered me. First was the foul language. I, like another reviewer, had read another one of K. Hannah's books and it didn't have any bad language in it. I usually don't mind it a little, but using "God" and the curse word bothers me. Second, she not only repeated herself about the husband's problems, she used the same descriptions more than once and about more than one thing. Those 2 things aside, I enjoyed the book and the storyline. I am not giving up on K. Hannah! The first book I read was Magic Hour and I really enjoyed it, so I order a lot more of her books. I started with the earliest one I had, and it was this book. That goes to show that the author only improves with her later novels.
Summary of Once in Every Life
Tess Gregory's brilliant career as a research scientist hides her longings for husband and child. Though deaf, she is a free spirit -- a woman full of life and love. She is struck down all too soon.But for Tess, a new life begins at her death, in post-Civil War America. She is now Amarylis Rafferty, wife and mother of three -- and she can hear. Shocked and disoriented by her new surroundings, she is drawn into the savage heartache burdening the family, especially her husband, Jack, a man who fears himself capable of anything.
