Today’s team review is from Jessie, she blogs here http://behindthewillows.com
Jessie has been reading The Elizabeth Papers by Jenetta James
“Finis.”
I read the last line, sighed happily and mentally hugged the digital book to my heart (It’s a true downfall of e-readers, they just don’t snuggle like paper does).
It wasn’t.
The chapters switched between time frames in a way that I was never lost in one time yearning for another. I loved the romance, (of the happy sighing kind) and the hard to put down suspense of it all (I know, lost document suspense, believe it!). My only regret is that e-readers just don’t accept hugs like paperbacks do.
Would I recommend it? I have already told everyone who’s been willing to sit and listen that they should read this and you should too! If you’ve ever shown even a passing interest in Pride and Prejudice, historical fiction, sweet romance, contemporary drama or detective stories, try this book! I absolutely loved it and have moved the authors other book to the top of my “to be read” list!
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I discovered this book because I’m a proud member of Rosie’s Book Review Team!
Find a copy here from Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.com available free from Kindle Unlimited
Thanks, Jessie. I love the sound of it and it looks gorgeous too!

Terrific review and love your start – hugging a kindle is just NOT the same, I agree – nor does it ever have that ‘newness’ smell of books! Great book and I’ll definitely keep an eye out for it.

It’s not the same and while I will always appreciate the easy accessibility and price of e-books…. I just like paper books best!

It totally isn’t the same Annika! I went through a phase of reading a lot on my kindle when I had babies as it was easier but now I am getting back to paperbacks and so enjoying it. The Elizabeth Papers is available in paperback as well!

I just finished this novel last night and I’m still stunned. All my superlatives aren’t enough. When Mr. Darcy said, “If there is a thing in the world I would not do for you, I I do not believe I have found it yet.” I melted, got all weepy, and nearly swooned.
