Review of The Bridge

[Sargam Talreja]

The book is an excellent, engrossing read. Knowing more about Quebec Bridge's facts and history would be interesting. Great review.

I appreciate the character development that is clearly taking place within this book. As the characters get to know each other better, the dynamic changes and you become much more invested in the personal story taking place.

The book seems remarkable, I liked the natural dialogues and the portrayal of university life. The review shows that the novel is worth reading also for the true facts behind the famous bridge.

[Precious Anavheoba]

The cover of this book is interesting and attention-grabbing. The plot takes a fine twist and the author has created adequate suspense in the finding of the journal.

I love books that blend facts and fiction. I look forward to learning more about the Quebec bridge. Thank you for a great review.

[Alta Cloete]

I knew next to nothing about the tragedy of the Quebec bridge and the featured review sent me to Google, where I discovered quite a few interesting things. Among others, that there were actually two incidents where the same bridge collapsed (1907 and 1916) and that engineers apparently started wearing an iron ring after those disasters, to symbolize their devotion to their profession.
I would also love to read the book, as the development of the relationship between the two students interests me. I just love a good love story!

The topic does not sound too exciting to me, but I do wonder what secrets the Quebec bridge hides.

[Chiamaka Ogadimma]

Judging by the review of this book, it looks really entertaining. My only problem with this kind of books that it is sometimes hard to separate the real historical facts from the fictional ones. Congratulations on the book of the day.

I love Engineering concepts a-lot. Thanks for this review

[Stefania Festa]

As you recommended it for university students I got curious, since I have nostalgia for my postgrad time! The novel sounds very interesting, I'll look it up on KU. Thanks for the amazing review!

[Cheryl Erickson]

This seems like a captivating historical fiction novel. I would be interested to learn about the collapse of the Quebec Bridge. I like how the author weaved past and present stories together. I also enjoy reading about how characters and relationships of all kinds develop throughout a story. Terrific book review, and congrats to Andrew Palmer!

[Kajori Sheryl Paul]

Fiction with a dash of history is always interesting.

Thank you for the great review.

[Ndagire Hassifah1]

The book seems like a good read. I would love to join Ben and Esther's journey to unveil the truth. Great review and congrats on the BOTD.

[Seamstress]

Sounds quite enticing to me, especially in the part of "interspersed fact and fiction throughout the novel", because I believe there is nothing bad in bringing real history alive with the help of fictional characters. Seeing events unfold through their eyes, how people are influenced by them is the greatest achievement of literature!

I don’t think I’m interested in reading about a bridge disaster, but I do like that it’s a true story, so it should interest people who enjoy books like this.
