Summary: Superb Sequel
Comment: Emma's Secret was the best new book I have read in quite a while.
It was so enjoyable to read Barbara Taylor Bradford and revisit with these characters that have become like old friends to me.
Thanks for bringing back Emma and for giving us this new look at the Harte family. I can't wait for Unexpected Blessings!

Summary: Come on, who really wrote this book?
Comment: I was thrilled to see another Emma Harte book out since WOMAN OF SUBSTANCE was one of the best ever published. So I grabbed this as soon as possible. And what a let down. All Emma Harte's grandchildren and great grandchildren seem to do is have not very well written sex and/or hate one another. The character development lacks the deep recesses of the minds as we found in Emma, Adam Fairly, Winston Harte, and Blackie..even Paula. Paula was so in love with Jim Fairly at the end of Woman of Substance--how dare she now tell us it was a bad match? And now the Harte's are marrying into a Jewish family? Emma herself absolutely refused this because she knew it would never have been approved by David Kallinski--the head of the Kallinski family. Therefore, this match is diametrically opposed to the nature of the original book. And then there's the writing style--or lack thereof. The opening scene with Linnet on the Moor is no more classic Barbara Taylor Bradford then Dr. Seuss. Where is the glory in this writing? Where is the magic? Come on, who really wrote this book?
The one thing I'll give the book is this: the character names are correct and I couldn't find any misspelled words.

Summary: Ms. Bradford, More Emma Please!!
Comment: I was very happy to see another book about Emma Harte and her offspring, etc. This book is more about the children and great-grandchildren than about Emma. However, her legacy lives on in the values the members of the three clans have regarding Emma's businesses and her life's works. The book is wonderfully romantic as the great-grandchildren find their mates. It was wonderful to visit Emma via her diaries during World War II and remember why we fell in love with the Emma series in the first place. Ms. Bradford, don't keep us waiting so long next time!
