  🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Book: Elizabeth's Mountain Author: Lucille Guarino Rating: 4.5/5 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Review: Those who love reading women's fiction should get their hands on this book. Elizabeth's Mountain is a story set around two generations and their experiences with love.  This is a delightful tale. Elizabeth is ninety-years-old now. When she was young, she was in love with a man named Robbie. After losing him in World War II, Elizabeth met a young doctor who fell for her and they married. Her thirty-four-year old granddaughter has recently moved in with her. Amanda is still single and has no hopes of finding love after her three year old relationship ended. She believes chivalry is not there now as it was in her grandmother's times.  Amanda's grandmother became her friend and motivated her. It was amazing to see Elizabeth as a hopeless romantic. She reminds me of my younger self. The characters are well written. This story will stay in my mind for a long time. Undoubtedly,...

He had thought that Maggie would pass out for two or three days after her surgery and Carter could use this time to work on his novel. With the missing damn cat, Carter was left to deal with different freaks. I loved the ending of the story. Carter is a good husband as he puts efforts into his marriage and holds it together. He can do anything in the hope that his wife will love him more. The story plot is not predictable and the su...
