Flow/Pace: Perfect Reading
Character Heroine: Mackenzie, a young kitchen maid
Character Hero: Patrick, handsome and strong
Overall read: Mackenzie's Cross is NOT predictable, as an avid reader, I love that fact. My eyes were glued to each page as I lamented a series of sighs, moans, and then an occasional grunt of displeasure. I absolutely loved the ending, but still, I hated Isaac. The ending was tied together nicely and everyone was accounted for. Dare I say more? This emotional read was well worth my time. I agree; this book is an award winner, and the best I've read in quite a while. I don't give 5 crowns easily. This book has earned every one.
I Really Liked: Sarah Barthel's writing style was authentic to the medieval period. She gave much attention to details, which placed me right inside the story.
