Waterfall by Lisa Tawn Bergren
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wowzers. First, let me start off by explaining that this book has patiently waited on my “Want to Read” list for over a year. Yes, I admit I’ve overlooked this gem for far too long based on a negative review that made mention of Gabriella noticing how attractive men were when she happens upon them in the heat of battle. The reviewer referred to the novel as silly and thus, I avoided this book for far too long. As I began the book I still had my doubts but the further I read the more I was hooked.
With that being said…now that I’ve finally read the book I’ll do my best in convincing you to read it as well. CORRECTION- When I said I read the book I guess it would be more accurate to state that I devoured all 3 books in the series in 2 days. Allow me to share with you my thoughts and fawn over the beautiful characters that Lisa Tawn Bergren managed to create.
Let us start with the strong, compassionate and captivating heroine Gabriella “Gabi” Betarrini. As a 17 year old thrust 700 years in the past she manages to inspire everyone she encounters. Time and time again she demonstrates several qualities I admire in a female character.
As the story unfolds the author continues to introduce new and interesting characters, plot twists that kept me entertained and enough tender moments between family and friends to remind me of the high stakes.
