4.0 out of 5 stars The Property of a Gentleman by Catherine Gaskin, June 25, 2010

This review is from: The Property of a Gentleman (Hardcover)

This book was ingrossing from the first page. I felt as though I was right there with the characters. At the beginning, there was a brief overview of the relationship or lack thereof with one of the title characters and her parents.
I felt that as the story unfolded it made you want to know more about the characters as they were introduced. That is one of the traits I enjoy about this author's books. You don't get the whole picture up front. A good read for her fans and others wishing to try a new author.

Love love love this story have read it many times. Love the auction house antiques details, love the location. The dialogue is a bit unrealistic but the story is great and in Catherine Gaskin fashion never a neat tied up ending although more satisfying than most

2.0 out of 5 stars Slow moving, June 30, 2009

This review is from: The Property Of A Gentleman (Paperback)

I thought that this book was quite slow moving. After spending quite a while introducing the characters, it finally started to get really good about three-quarters of the way through. If you are a fan of Catherine Gaskin, you should read this, if not, there are other books to read.
