Kate Lloyd writes impeccably. Her characters are always fully developed and fit into the scenes where they are placed. Saying this, I could not get myself interested in her book, A Letter from Lancaster County. I have read other of her books and enjoyed them all, but even with a well-liked author, the random book will come along that just doesn't fit my taste. This is no criticism on Kate or on her book. It's a matter of personal taste.
Angela and Rose have received a letter from their Aunt Silvia in Lancaster County asking them to come for a visit. Each chapter is devoted to Angela or Rose in alternating fashion, giving their viewpoints on the things that are happening.
I just wish I could have lost myself in the book like I do with so many of the books I read, but this one eluded me. Three stars--just because I didn't like it doesn't mean you won't.
My thanks to Harvest House Publishing for allowing me to read and review this book.
