The characters are well-drawn, and as an American, much of
my delight with this book entailed the descriptive countryside and the British
nuances of personality. As the relationships evolve, in particular with Greg
and Matilda, I felt myself totally drawn in and expectantly awaiting the
outcomes.
The Bridle Path was written in such a way that it was believable and satisfying
when these characters come to love and support and appreciate each other.
An excellent read; I heartily recommend it to all!'

Thank you Dody, and thank you Kathy:) This is now officially my favourite review of "The Bridle Path"
ReplyDeleteand honoured to be the first recipient of Kathy's very first book review.
Congratulations too on your nomination in the Efestival of Words Awards for non-fiction, this is one of the largest and hardest genres of all. I'm certain your mom is so proud, as always, of her girls.
Always welcome, Julia. 'The Bridle Path' is a treasure! Every one of your novels has enriched not only my reading experience but, more so, taken me along on so many exciting rides, in some pretty fantastical places! Looking forward to the next :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely review. Being English I am bias :) No, I love Cornwall and I always love reading about the English countryside. My favourite books are Jamaica Inn and Wuthering Heights... I will try this one too on the basis of this review. Good luck with the competition - I'll be sure to vote x
ReplyDeleteSince I popped onto Twitter, I've been so drawn towards British authors and their stories - various genres, like bees to flowers :)Looking forward to posting your short story on Sunday!
DeleteThank you Lorraine:) I love "Jamaica Inn" too (and Frenchman's Creek) love Bodmin moors, and love my pasties and saffron cake.
ReplyDeleteSuch fun, first reading The Bridle Path, and then having the pleasure of writing a review for this wonderful book. Julia Hughes has been such an inspiration, but mostly, a good friend to my sister, Dody.
ReplyDeleteNice post, thanks for sharing
