One of my favorites from Grace Livingston Hill .. this was a re-read, but wonderful again, as always! Lovely romance, with a Christian message, and beautiful imagery.2-26-16 Once again easily one of my favorites. A fairy tale for sure, but a fun one to read.Never disappointedYou can never go wrong with a GLH story. This was another great read. Heroines and heroes may not always have depth of character, but they always come through with integrity of character. Wish we could go back to this era.
Rainbow CottageGrace L HillThere are 2 huge reasons why i really like reading Grace's books. One I mentioned in all my reviews-- it is the spiritual application that is so greatly described and so vivid that you want to be there and experience it yourself.The second reason is that she lived and wrote about the era when evolution first came out and was spoiling people's minds and lives. Her books are right between a strict Victorian and spoiled contemporary romance. It brings a breath of fresh
Any of the Grace Livingston Hill Books, and I've read all but 2 of her 100 plus books, were read well over ten years ago. Most I remember them being uplifting having good things happening out of bad situations. Also that any references to the Bible were spot on. I was frequently surprised in story lines that almost all of them were set in the 20's until I learned more about the Author and that it was the era that she lived in. Which brought on a different perspective on reading her books as
I think this was my favorite Grace Livingston Hill so far! I fell in love with the house, Rainbow Cottage, and the grandmother, Mrs. Ainslee. :)
Typical GLH fare--gentle good girl with inate breeding and taste goes up against a woman of the world (and to a lesser extent, a genuine bad guy who framed her dad) and gets the guy. Of course it's classist and snobby in all the unintentionally horrible ways literature of this time often was. I found myself sympathizing more with the "woman of the world", Jacqueline, this time around. This is my fourth time re reading this, at least.
I liked this one a lot.
