5.0 out of 5 stars A Touching Story, June 12, 2000

This review is from: To Hear a Nightingale (Hardcover)

This is one of my most favorite books. I have read it over and over again and never tire of it. The book takes you through the life of a young girl, from childhood until she is an old woman. She faces many obstacles in her life, and several tragedies, and she perseveres and overcomes them. The book is set in New York and later, in Ireland. I don't want to write much more about the story itself - I just have to say that women should read this. I just love it. I had my mom read it, and she also loved it.

This review is from: To Hear a Nightingale (Paperback)

I found this book at a local flea market we had over the summer. To say the least it's now becomming one of the best books i've read. I'm 3/4 of the way through the book and can hardly put it down:) Charlotte Bingham does a great job with Cassie, Joel, Jo, and Mattie.

Horse racing with a heroine and a love story all rolled into one:) A Champion Horse who's kidnapped and then gelded. The main character Cassie - A woman in a mans world (horse racing) who's threatened when she keeps her home bred horse in training and then has it kidnapped only to find it gelded and her hopes crushed. Joel - an artist who falls in love with Cassie and helps her uncover the mystery surrounding The Nightengale's kidnapping. He ends up helping his father put an end to his life and ends up in prison for it.

I'm not gonna tell ya anymore:) you've gotta read the book!:) trust me you won't want to set it down:)

I found this book while traveling abroad this summer - since coming back to the States it has been impossible to find anything by Charlotte Bingham. Please take the time to read this story - you will find it enchanting! Also wonderful is Debutantes by Charlotte Bingham.
