2.0 out of 5 stars A disappointing read, June 10, 2007
I really had to work to stay with this to the end, and wasn't worth my time. The renaissance stuff was tedious, a really disappointing read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Does Claire Malloy Like Anybody or Anything?, May 16, 2008
I think Claire Malloy needs to seek professional help. For some reason, she seems to think she is superior to everyone she meets. She doesn't even like her daughter or her fiance Peter Rosen, with whom there is no chemistry. I won't even go into the silly plot or the contrived conclusion. This series ran out of steam a couple of books ago.

2.0 out of 5 stars don't like renaissance fairs, May 9, 2007
By 
Pat (Austin, TX, United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I disliked this book. I don't like Renaissance fairs as it is, and I far prefer Hess's Maggody books to the Claire Molloy stories. This book had conversations that went on way too long with the "thee" and "thou" Renaissance speech that I find tedious. She also tossed in some quotes that seemed unnecessary and self-serving. Sure showed me that I know nothing of literature. I think I've bought all of Hess's books. From the beginning I observed that Hess's phrasing is so trite, it's almost high school quality. (No offense to articulate high schoolers.)

I do enjoy the interaction between mother and daughter, which is probably why I still buy her Molloy stories.
