review 1: "North and South" meets "Downton Abbey" is what this book is like. I liked it quite a bit. Not quite 4 stars, but definitely more than just 3. It was well written. But there didn't seem to be any real climax or conclusion to the book. It's obvious there is a sequel, but I still feel like there should have been more of an ending that it had, but also more in the middle to warrant an ending. Plus there were a few pages of detailed sexual encounters that didn't need as much description as were given. Just a warning to any wanting to read it.
review 2: Meh. Enjoyable in that it is easy chick-lit and a complete rip off of Downton Abbey, but the main character is way too "mary-sue" for my taste. Very few flaws, everyone wants her, she succeeds at everything, b... morelah blah blah. (She received 2 marriage proposals and even more offers of attention in a book that is what, 350 pages? Give me a break) I would have preferred if the author actually spent more time on some of the other characters and the world in which they live. less
