"Margaret of the North is written eloquently and you really feel that the thoughts and feelings of these characters are genuine. The tone of the novel is not forced, but comes naturally. It is evident that the author understands her characters and took a great deal of time getting to know them before committing their story to paper. The plot is obvious but expected in a period piece.....If you want a deep, introspective, maybe even complex adventure of real life issues intercepting relationships, read this novel. [It] is written in a tone that is rarely ever seen in our own time. It is a treat." ~The First 7500 Words Review Blog
