Summary: What a boring novel...
Review: The plot looked interesting on the back of the book but after finally finishing (I found myself skimming through many pages), all I could think of was how much time I wasted reading it. I was even more disappointed to learn that there was a sequel so I wasn't even granted an end to this dull novel. The first few chapters were interesting and held promise but then the story just lost its charm and plodded along . All the characters (except for Osmond Kott) were basically the same--loving, caring, good, noble, beautiful. I found Price's writing to be too flowery and idealistic. She needs to spice things up more to hold my interest. I do not recommend this book unless you want to learn a little about the South during that era. And if you're looking for a romance novel--go for the ones that have real passion in them.

Summary: Eugenia Price continues to showcase her knowledge of Georgia
Review: While "Savannah" is an excellent book, Eugenia Prices' writing history of Coastal Georgia started long before now. Might I reccomend her St. Simons Trilogy..."Lighthouse", "New Moon Rising" and "Beloved Invader" If you enjoyed "Savannah", you'll become totally engrossed in this trilogy. I heartedly reccomend anything by Eugenia Price.
