"It was a cute, fast read. I'm curious to read her other books. Plus, I see she is from Clear Lake - IA!"
— Sarah (4 out of 5 stars)
" Not her best book, but still an enjoyable read. Fin. "
— Angela, 12/22/2013" Egad. Don't waste your time. This is not a good book. Simplistic plot, annoying dialogue, and dumb characters. "
— Jennie, 11/28/2013" A great read. Loved it ..I couldn't put it down. "
— Susan, 11/28/2013" Historically WRONG & astonishingly predictable. Better to read a romance actually written in the 30's. "
— Cher, 6/16/2013" Set in the 1930's, a girl tries to run away from her would-be guardian and finds a man who takes her breath away...blah, blah, blah. An easy read, the librarian suggested it. "
— Lori, 5/20/2013" Garlock writes romances (fairly gentle) from different periods in american history. This one is 1930's Louisiana. "
— Mary, 1/6/2013" Read this on a plane... good. "
— Maggie, 11/2/2012" This was a pretty good book...slow start for me..but stuck with it and it turned out enjoyable..:) "
— Kimberly, 10/8/2012" It was a very slow read "
— Brenda, 8/3/2012" A Week from Sunday is a mildly pleasant book. The characters are somewhat enjoyable, but the plot is a little simplistic. A lawyer embezzles money from a dying man while planning to wed the daughter at his death. She escapes and ends up hiding in a small, poor town and falling in love. "
— Glenajo, 6/24/2012" It was OK. A good killing time read. "
— Judy, 6/5/2012" Good Story. Moves along pretty fast. Another "happily ever after" story. "
— Bonnie, 12/17/2011" Very good, read in one week. A very unexpected ending. "
— Brenda, 10/29/2011" Not sure why I finished reading this book. "
— Carolyn, 7/4/2011" The first several pagers were very rough, after that the writing got better. But this book DRAGGED. I wouldn't recommend it. "
— kah, 5/6/2011" This is first book of Dorothy Garlock that I have read and overall I though it was good. The characters were interesting and had well developed personalities. The plot was good and the writing was very descriptive. "

He was first published in 1827 and then began a career as a magazine writer and editor and a sharp literary critic. In 1845 the publication of his most famous poem, “The Raven,” brought him national fame.
