This book hit me hard. Hymns of Blue Hollow isn’t just a romance—it dives into some really deep topics, and it doesn’t hold back. It’s emotional and truthful for the time period. It left me thinking about it long after I turned the last page.Esther’s story is incredible. She’s been through so much, and there were moments that were hard to read because of how real it felt. But at the same time, there’s this strength in her that kept me rooting for her. She’s not perfect, but she keeps going, and that’s what stuck with me.Their relationship in the book feel genuine and it feels like it has a natural pace, build up that is complex, not a cookie cutter story. These people are complexThis isn’t a light read, despite light moments, but that’s what makes it so good. It’s the kind of story that makes you feel—the pain, the hope, and all the messy emotions in between. If you’re looking for something that’s powerful and unforgettable, I can’t recommend this enough. Be prepared to cry in some spots, too.I just noticed it says that it is part of a series, which makes me excited to go further on the journey! I didn’t want to say goodbye to Esther just yet. one person found this helpful 5.0 out of 5 stars Simply an incredible book Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2024Verified Purchase!
Hymns of Blue Hollow is a literary romance in the best way. The writing is beautiful, with just enough poetic moments to make Esther’s story hit even harder without ever feeling over the top. Those little touches add so much depth and meaning, and they fit perfectly with the flow of the book What really stood out to me is how the author captures emotions. It’s real, like the words are coming straight from the characters’ hearts. The story itself is powerful, but it’s the way it’s told that makes it memorable.The book is beautifully written but never pretentious. It draws you in with its honesty and keeps you turning the pages with its depth. If you’re a fan of stories that feel both profound and accessible, this one is a must-read. It’s a book you’ll want to savor and return to. Highly recommended! people found this helpfulReviewed in the United States on November 29, 2024 Verified Purchase
