Summary: A Gathering of Finches
Comment: Once again Jane Kirkpatrick has touched my heart with her writing. I would and do recommend all of her books to friends and family.
Rating: 5
Summary: Very excellent, I couldn't put it down until I finished it.
Comment: Jane Kirpaterick did a beautiful job writing this book and a enjoyed reading it so much. I live in the area close to the the Simpson estate at Shore Acres and go there often. It is a beautiful garden and very well kept. My grandfather, John Kruse, was a Master Shipbuilder for Asa Simpson so the book had a lot of meaning to me. I would love it if Jane could autograph it for me.

Summary: Slow-going and Dull
Comment: I suspect you might have to be an Oregonian to like this book, and a patient one at that. (I read it as the choice of another member of my book group.) Although I'm a voracious reader, I found "Finches," like many ersatz 20th-century "Victorian" novels, way too long--and I was able to foresee at least one crucial development of the plot long before it was revealed. The author at times has a rather clipped style and uses words in what at best might be considered an unusual or "fresh" way, but I often had to reread her sentences to figure out their meaning. The two lead characters especially were unappealing and the ostentatious description of their ostentatious wealth was boring. Unless you live in Oregon and are a committed devotee of its history, don't waste your time on this one. I would have given this book no star at all if I had been given that choice.
