Sovay Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Not bad for a historical novel. But by far not as captivating as "Pirates". I stopped after 224 pages because I have so many books on pile and reading time is precious. "

" Interesting, sometimes felt as watching a movie of that time. "

" I am usually a sucker for historical fiction, but this did not interest me at all. I managed to finish it though, because I had nothing else to read at the time. The whole experience for me was tedious, and I was bored out of my mind, which is surprising, because the idea of the book is not boring at all. Just the way it was written I guess put me to sleep. "

" Absolutely terrible! She ends up with a guy who you met for five seconds, it is so boring, no action. Dont read it. "

" Really good at first, but then it just got boring. "

" It was really great. It was adventurous but yet took the time to absorb the story. "

" I wasn't terribly impressed by this book. I never really got into it, was bored by it, and ended up skimming much of it. The slogan on the front implies that there will be some sort of romance--don't be fooled! There's an implied romance at the end, but the love, that's love for her family. "

" Another historical novel. "

" I really liked the book and the plot reminded me of The Red Necklace. What I didn't like was the ending. Poor hair... "

" First half was fun, but the second half was boring and did not make as much sense because I began to skip. "

" Not NEARLY as good as her other books. It sounded so interesting too! "

" I admit that I didn't finish this one. It started out strong, but then it seemed to want to go in too many directions. Plus, the heroine had several suitors in the beginning, then chose a miscellaneous guy at the end, which didn't really ring true. (I skimmed through about 3/4 of it.) "

" 2.5 stars. Sovay was historically accurate and well-written but I found myself disappointed by how little I cared for the characters. "

" A lot of French & English revolution polotics. Not interesting for me. "

" A disjointed, disappointing story of a fickle young woman who tries to save her father and brother--and pretty much everyone else in the story--from a spy lord attempting copy the French revolution in England. "

" Kinda silly really. Pretty incredulous shenanigans pulled by main character. Got into the time period but I don't particularly like historical novels. Might make a lively tv miniseries. "

" I loved this book, it had mystery, romance, and a terrific original storyline.One of the best books I've ever read. "

" It was good, but it wasn't quite what I was expecting. And I think Sovay relied a bit too much on other people for me to really like this book. "

" this wasn't the book i was expecting. i thought it would be full of tales of a girl acting as a highwayman and the adventures she would have from that but then it turned into a story about the French revolution and the Illuminati? it was ok. "

" It had a good premise but it tried to put too many things in one book. May be if it was a trilogy and everything was spaced out I might have liked it but it wasn't so I didn't. "

" You can learn about the French Revolution in this book but really, Sovay can run all around a master spy's castle & he doesn't know what she's doing? "

" Very good I liked it a lot. I've never read robin hood but if i had i might have compared it to this. "

" It was entertaining enough, however I have read better books. "

" This book has so many twists and turns that you can not predict what's around the corner. Sovay has to be one of my favorite female literature characters. "

" A splendid adventure with a likeable heroine. Doesn't pull punches and reveals interesting historical facts that I was previously unaware of, brought to life through the eyes of one undergoing the drama and confusion of the French Revolution. "

" I really liked this book. Action and mystery and pretty much everything. READ IT! "

" I mostly skimmed this but otherwise it was actually pretty good. It was just a little too packed full of different elements, but I did like it. It's just not my type of book anymore. I'm glad I borrowed it, but I did very much enjoy reading it. "

" I loved Sovay. Family is important and this book shows that. A young woman overcoming sexisim to save lives and fight for fredom. "

" This book was really great, it was nice to read a book that didn't belong to a series. Sovay is like a breath of fresh air. I was gunning for her to end up with Captain Greenwood, but Leon's good enough I suppose. "
