Rhanna,
By becky (Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rhanna (Paperback)
This is one of the best books that I have ever read. When I first read the book I was dubious of the 'heartwarming full blooded romance' tagline, but this book truly does have something for everyone. I found myself turning pages with increasing speed; laughing at the descriptions of the nosy Behag Beag and her insatiable lust for gossip, despite her protestations that she is a "body pure o' sin", crying when Shona's dog dies and feeling ridiculously thrilled when, like all good stories, everything 'came right' in the end. This is the first book in the Rhanna series and I promise that each book will continue to exert a fascination over the reader until they feel that they themselves are almost a part of the island community where the series is set.

Best Scottish Series,
By BethPanda@compuserve.com (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rhanna (Hardcover)
I regret only that I did not read these sooner. This is the first book in a wonderful series. They are so real, when you have finished, you have been to this island and you know the people. This also gets a hanky award.. be prepared to laugh and to cry.

A reader from Oz down under says "More please",
By A Customer
This review is from: Rhanna (Hardcover)
After reading Rhanna and every other Christine Marion Fraser book published in Australia over and over again, I feel I know the author and all her characters personally. I wait impatiently for each new book to hit the bookshops and am then of no use to anyone until I have finished reading it. I then settle down to read it again and enjoy the second reading as much, if not more because of familiarity with the characters. Is there to be a sequel to Green are my Mountains? I hope so.
