I've been doing ThrowbackThursdays for a while but I noticed that I wrote a lot of reviews in a short time when I first started. So, I listed more than one Throwback book every week. Now, I have reached the ones I posted ten years ago and will probalby just post one every month. These are my reviews from November 2015.
Fowler, Christopher "Hell Train" - 2011
The story is interesting, even though I wouldn't normally pick one of these. The characters, four people who happen to meet in a train, are well described, each and every one of them comes alive well. I did like the folk tales people were telling each other about the train, stories they had heard as children and lived with all their lives.
Gaskell, Elizabeth "North and South" - 1854/55
Gaskell, Elizabeth "North and South" - 1854/55
In this novel, we hear the story of Margaret Hale whose father leaves the ministry because he has doubts about his belief. They move from the South of England to a place in the North, from a village to a town, a lot of things change for Margaret Hale.
