This was definitely a different kind of book... which I loved!
The love story is not the main focus in this story. I found that refreshing. I also enjoyed the historical and geographical aspects and did not find the religious references overbearing.
To me anyway, it was an inspiring and thoughtful book.
There were just a few slightly {UM}.
There is an illegitimate child in the story and the orphanage director calls him the "b" word (I think only once) but that is the only instance of {L} in the book.
There is also a little bit of a backstory that deals with prostitution so that is why I gave it the back story rating {BSt}
I don't think everyone will love this one because of the reasons I mentioned in the first paragraph but I say "Well Done!" to Ms Austin :)
I'll have to see if I still have this one. I have liked what I have read by this author.
