Summary: I am afraid I didnt enjoy it that much. A bit of a let down
Review: I thought I would like it, but I was seriously let down. The story is indeed a good one, especially the struggle of women in this book, but unfortunately the plot was somewhat thin, and even important events were belittled or downgraded and were not entered into in detail. Has its fair share of tragedy which is good, but story line is frail and watered down.

Summary: This is the best book i have ever read
Review: Portraits is the best book I have every read! It has very interesting characters that you care about. The plot is very involved and moves at a good pace. Portraits could be the story of my grandparents and great-parents because the theme is similiar in families who emigrated to this country at the turn of the century. The characters in Portraits are very believable and remind me of people that I know.

Summary: My favorite book!
Review: This is the best book I have ever read. I first read it when I was 19 years old and all the girls in my office were passing it around. I am 41 years old and have been recommending this book for years. It's a wonderful story about a family, taking place over 6o or more years. I think the characters are very developed - you feel as if you know them and identify with them. Certain parts actually make me cry no matter how many times I have read this book. Many years ago I read that there would be a sequel to Portraits but never heard about it any further. I would love a sequel, and also I think it would make a great movie. I have enjoyed all of Cynthia Freeman's books, but Portraits is outstanding.
