Review: MAGNETIC!
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 08 4, 2013
What most authors want to achieve was what THIS author did.  She gave her characters and her novel the magnetic ability to get you hooked and attached to the characters that felt like someone you cared deeply about.  The story has been told many times, but what is important in this one is how this is so true to life; how so many people feel this same way and have no one to guide them through this emotional and "alone in the world" feeling.  I don't normally have a chance to read a book through to the end in one sitting, but with this one I did.The deep emotions from Ms. Ivey to her subjects, gave me the heart-breaking punch and the emotions and the tenderness of a Jane Austen novel. While reading over each page sometimes twice, I laughed, I cried, and I felt like this could not be so, and then started to feel the hope and the inspiration that the characters portrayed by this fabulous author.If you are looking for a novel that will touch your soul and your heart and make you feel better about life, do yourself a favor and read this book.Magnetic story, magnetic writing, and you will become attached!  Just wait and see! Waiting for the next book in the series is going to seem like too long a wait with writing this compelling!!My reading was done via Kindle.
