The Mountain Girl


Lu par LibriVox Volunteers

(4.6 étoiles; 28 critiques)

A delightful love-story, genuinely American in feeling and treatment. The story is stirring, the heroine is ideal. (Summary by the Chicago Tribune, from time of publishing) (0 hr 51 min)

It was a sweet story but the mother got me a little angry. I understand that at all of Europe’s nobility was a clique, but she cared more for what society would think about her than her son’s happiness. David also underwent an unpleasant character change 3/4 through the book but in the end redeemed himself. Cassandra was a sweetheart.

Really enjoyed this book

I loved the book. I was not sure during the first couple chapters that I wanted to continue but as the story progressed I was hooked. The readers were pretty good as well.

Amazing.this one’s a work of art! Cassandra was my favorite, and yet, in a way she didn’t quite fit. It’s almost like the author got hold of a character she couldn’t handle, something beyond her ability, but the story would not have been the same had she been any different

engaging story

There were a couple slow chapters but overall this was a great book. Wholesome and engaging.

Engaging story with vague ending.

Engaging story. Longer than expected but anticlimactic ending.
