Book review: Finding Lady Enderly by Joanna Davidson Politano




Finding Lady Enderly was a surprising & delightful read!  I expected it
to be a twist on "My Fair Lady" & "Jane Eyre", & to a certain extent it
is.... but it really goes much deeper than that.  I was captured from the
first page with this riveting story & read it in just a few sittings.  There
is a lot to this tale, & the many twists draw you deeper & deeper into
the story.  The revelations keep coming & the big one near the end was
unexpected...but also not entirely unexpected, because it made perfect
sense, in a twisted, not-of-sound-mind sort of way.

I liked that there were scriptures & truths mentioned throughout the
book, & that God was often referred to as the Rescuer....for that is
one of His best traits!  (Savior of the world.)   I enjoyed the Easter
Egg hunts as well.  I found myself trying to figure out where the
secret messages were located before reading the answers in the book.  You know, just to see how my literary insight would measure up.  ;)

I liked the blend of Romance, Mystery, Suspense & how it all ties
together to reveal a deeper meaning & plan.  One of the main purposes
of the book is to encourage us to look deeper than just the outward
appearance - Because sometimes a person in rags can be much more
beautiful on the inside than someone who 'has it all together', so to speak.

I won't give spoilers, dear reader, as that would take away from the
surprise & delight that I hope you will find by reading it yourself!  I
did very much enjoy this story & highly recommend it to lovers of
English novels, Mysteries & clean Romances.

My only small complaint about this book is that the cover art implies
that the Heroin of the novel would have dark hair, when in reality she
has long blonde curls.  But this is a minor issue & does not detract from
the story.
