Stone Heart

Although STONE HEART may not be everyone's cup of tea, I found it thoroughly engrossing and hard to put down. Knowing nothing about the Pequot Indians, I can't comment on the review stating that Ms. Rice didn't do her research except to say I find that very hard to believe. One of the things I've enjoyed the most about Ms. Rice's books is their authenticity and her knowledge of the Connecticut shore and ability to translate that knowledge vividly. The book tackled a difficult subject and gave it a fresh slant. The characters were engaging and fully realized and the family relationships were complicated and realistic. And, as always, the writing shone. I'm glad this book was reissued as I would hate to have missed it. RECOMMENDED.

I didn't know what to expect when I first began to read this book as I had not read a review of it. As the story unfolded and the story line became more evident I contemplated not finishing the book. I have found that reading Luanne Rice's books, more often than not, have been lessons of life. Even when the story may reveal disturbing issues...we need to remember that our own lives can be disturbing at times. With that said, I continued reading knowing that what I had learned from the story could some day be a life saver for others.

I love this book. Luanne Rice is one of my favorite authors.

Not your regular Luanne Rice book, for sure. It's an eye opener if you're thinking it will be about romance because it's pretty harsh. A good read but be prepared for the violence and the stories of abuse.

Interesting story but all of hers are!!

I enjoy reading books on this author!

I received the book in a reasonable time and it was in very good condition. I have had surgery recently and a stay in a nursing home so am really late with this review. Sorry about that.

A very unusual book but loved iy as always Luanne Rice is one of my favorite authors
