You can’t help but love them, as well as hope that the villains will get what they justly deserve. Sara Donati writes a colorful novel that takes you on a historical journey with her characters as your guide. Of course, sometimes I’d forget what I read and have to go backwards so it’s not my preferred way to read a historical, but I just couldn’t wait any longer! So good!īeing able to travel along with some of the same characters throughout the WILDERNESS series is like visiting with old friends. It was a long process reading it like that but I didn’t want to rush, so I read a few minutes each night, savoring every detail until I finished it.
I read LAKE IN THE CLOUDS during my fifteen minutes to a half hour bedtime reading last fall. No more waiting for time to read large historicals ‒ I’ll just squeeze them in-between my contemporary and paranormal reads. Last year, I finally discovered that I can read two or three books at once without confusion, if I don’t genre cross.
INTO THE WILDERNESS SERIES BY SARA DONATI PLUS
I have a habit of stockpiling 600 plus page historical novels for that “someday” when I have more time to read them. I love the depth that you can get with a large historical book. I do read shorter historicals because they fit in with my hectic lifestyle, but I have never lost my craving for my treasured “saga tomes” as I lovingly call them. The number of pages within a historical novel usually determines whether I buy it or not. Years ago when I started the series, I never read a historical novel less than 600 pages. There’s nothing better, in my opinion, than immersing myself into a descriptive historical. Why do I enjoy them so much? I think it’s the historical time period and how the struggles of that time are met by bold characters who are not afraid to challenge themselves for their beliefs and desires.Īnother reason that I love them is that they’re huge books. I just kept adding the WILDERNESS series to my TBR Mountain Range until I had them all to read back-to-back. I knew I’d need all the books before I dared read another, or I’d start that search all over again for historicals that wouldn’t meet my expectations. I wanted it, yet I was afraid to read it for fear that I wouldn’t find more books like it when I was done. Have you ever read a novel that you loved so much that you were afraid to read the next one? That’s how I felt, waiting for LAKE IN THE CLOUDS to be published. Then, I read DAWN ON A DISTANT SHORE by Sara Donati as soon as I could get my greedy hands on it. Many years ago, I read INTO THE WILDERNESS by Sara Donati. Print version read from the TBR Mountain Range purchased by me. What will we do to squeeze in time for our cherished historical sagas? I’m finally getting back to the WILDERNESS series by Sara Donati.
