Book Reviews of Under the Northern Lights (Alaskan Quest #2)
Book Review: possibly the worst Christian novel I have read
Summary: 1 Stars
I read a ton of Christian historical romances. Everyone needs "candy" to counterbalance more serious sustenance and I enjoy escaping into what are usually slipshod plots, one dimensional characters, italicized prayers and soliloquies and predictable endings. I find them safe and happy. Tracie Peterson is certainly not a great writer... not even in the top of the genre ... but I usually enjoy a speedy, one-sitting read through some of her fluff. But, this is just downright bad. There isn't really anything redeeming about it. I cannot even chalk it up to cheesy fun.
Please. It reads like a dime-novel melodrama. Twins Chase and Jayce and one of them is evil?
Her Alaskan series is obviously no great feat, but they are breezy and enjoyable. I couldn't suspend myself to enter this crazy, clicheed, conformed and contrived realm... not even for the sake of fun.
Skip it. Skip skip skip it and go read A Proper Pursuit by Lynn Austin or All the Tea in China by Jane Orcutt: both pleasant, delightful, witty novels for strong heroines and a flair for dialogue and prose.
Peterson could take a few pointers.
Summary of Under the Northern Lights (Alaskan Quest #2)
Bestselling author Tracie Peterson continues her saga of life and love in the rugged Alaskan Territory with the second volume of the ALASKAN QUEST series. When Pinkerton agent Helaina Beecham's obsession with capturing a dangerous fugitive dulls her judgment, she is kidnapped and carried off into the wilderness just as an early winter is approaching. Now her only hope is that Jacob Barringer--the man who has captured her heart--will find her before it is too late. (Alaskan Quest Book 2)Contemporary Books
