The Bracelet
review 1: Jennie Hansen writes a good book. She has enough drama to keep you wanting to read more. This book is #2 in a series. It is set in 19th century England. It centers around a bracelet put in the diaper of a baby belonging to Margarette whose husband has recently passed away. There is a big emerald set in the middle of the bracelet with other jewels around it. Who could have put it in the diaper? She has many burdens on her as she journeys to America with her son and baby daughter. Interesting what part the bracelet with the big emerald plays in the book.
review 2: Book 2 in the series. This one was adventurous as well. It was interesting to read about the ships of Saints coming from England and the journey to Utah. I like Jennie Hansen's writing, but as
... more in other books, she seems to go to great lengths to make sure it sounds like nothing sexual happens between the characters (who are always married in a rush for convenience) but then suddenly she starts talking about how they are now pregnant. Kind of leaves you going "Huh?" I guess she's a little too subtle for me to pick up on. Maybe Covenant doesn't allow more than that in LDS fiction? I still really enjoyed it. less
