The Flight of Gemma Hardy (2012)

Loved it and would give it 4 1/2 for sure. This was a Cinderella story, with more bad things going on in Gemma and yet the dead helped her get though it all. Taken place from Iceland to Scotland and back and forth. Can one child grow up with such stenght to plow threw so much bad luck, and end...

Banishing Verona (2005)

Margot Livesey rotates between the perspectives of two British characters, Verona and Zeke. The whole book is driven by their unexpected romance as well as the masterful ability of the author to create such enjoyable life-like characters that the reader really finds himself caring about. I was ...

The Missing World (2006)

For some reason I am always surprised by the role of sadness in Margot Livesey’s novels. This has much to do with her excellent character construction.

Margot Livesey's fictional life of Evan MacEwan in WWII-era Scotland appealed to me with its mention of ghostly companions on the back cover. The furniture moving reference reminded me of my studies in Spiritualism, so ...

Mercury (2016)

As soon as we’d carried Jack out of the barn, she ran to Mercury. He was still wild with fear, kicking, screaming, and the other horses were whinnying and banging, their panic magnifying his. At the stables in Ann Arbor a stallion had killed a man by pinning him to a wall. People said the man was...

The House on Fortune Street

She had not seen her parents since they’d passed through town in the spring, but they sent a postcard with each new address. Now she wrote to them, asking for money. Her father sent another postcard, announcing that he and her mother were getting divorced, and saying nothing about money. Her moth...
