Carousel Dreams

Four stories revolving around historic Carousels are included in this collection put out by Barbour Books.  From Martha's Vineyard to San Diego, California, these majestic beauties are the sites of romance, and, to some degree, adventure. There are workers at the Carousels, painters of the Carousels, and, most of all, those who just enjoy the Carousels.  These are great stories for the reader to escape quarantine without leaving home during this pandemic.  My favorites were Sophie's Hope by Cynthia Hickey and Carousel Weddings by Susanne Dietze.  They both captured my imagination and kept me in a contented reading space all the way through the stories.

All four of these authors have offered quality writings for this collection and it is well worth the time and money to be able to read them all.  I love these kinds of collections because they offer plots that are finished in short time spans with engaging characters and beautiful settings that leave the reader satisfied once the story is done.

Five stars, two thumbs up, and a brass ring from the Carousel of your dreams.

Barbour Books and NetGalley.com provided the copy I read for this review.  All opinions expressed are my own.
