I am glad my review was helpful! Welcome to the review team! Certainly, I will check out your review. Thank you for taking the time to tell me your thoughts.AlphariusRE wrote: ↑12 Mar 2022, 11:32 I had to google what "jalopy" was. But the plotline sure is interesting! However, I'm not much into romance, so I'll give this book a pass. I'm new to this writing reviews, so I learnt quite a bit about structuring of paragraphs and other stuff from your review. I would be really grateful if you shared your thoughts about my recently published review as well.

A jalopy is an abandoned car in a bad condition, which, in this story, is the same car on the book cover. I am glad you enjoyed my review. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

I was not already familiar with the 1920s, but the book did open my eyes to a lot of things that were present in that period of time, and yes you certainly hit the mark with your comment. I appreciate your lovely words and hope you enjoy the book as much as I did! Thank you!AvidBibliophile wrote: ↑14 Mar 2022, 13:13 I suspect that farm life, tragic accidents, abandoned cars, and arranged marriages were typical of the chosen time period, and it sounds like this author has developed a fairly entertaining storyline with interesting characters, so I might give this 1920s-era novel a try! Thank you for your review.
