I recently got an ecopy of From Scotland, With Love in exchange for an honest review. I fell in love with the cover (compliments to the photographer! Isn’t it amazing?) and I was only waiting for my exam week to finish before I started to read it. I started it on Thursday afternoon and I was done by Friday morning :) That fact ought to tell you something.From Scotland, With Love: Evi’s Story is the first book in the Scotland Romance series by author C.L. Champlain. The story is quite interesting and it was a refreshing read for me after all the management & business stuff I’ve been reading lately ;) It’s generally well written and fun to read. Especially the Scottish language parts. I loved those!Apart from the things I already mentioned above, I liked that all the places mentioned in the book are real places. I’d love to see them for myself one day. They sound amazing. I liked the way the author portrayed a foreigner’s point of view on Scottish traditions and customs. Evi’s reactions to certain events/situations may seem hilarious. But, when I think about it now, I realize that they were not. What is more, I’d probably react in the same way. The book is written in such a manner that allows the reader to relate to the characters and situations. I don’t know about you, but I think that’s pretty cool.In the My thoughts on posts, I also say what I disliked about a particular book. There were very few things I disliked about this book. Teeny tiny details that I won’t mention because I don’t want to ruin the book for you. I can’t explain what those are without including some spoilers. Get your hands on this book, read it and let me know you have if you want to discuss it.Rating - 4 starsWho would I recommend it to - romance fans, fans of books set in Scotland, C.L. Champlain fans
