#412 ~ Thie Whiskey Tide

The Whiskey Tide by M. Ruth Myers

My rating: 4 of 5 stars






This was another of my DSOA picks back in mid 2013.

After the last two quite disappointing books, this was refreshing change.

It was well written, and relatively error free. The plot was enjoyable with a twist or turn here and there, with good quality writing displayed.

Having said that, I do feel the author took the safe option, and could have pushed herself further with both the characterisation and plot changes. Quite a bit of the time it felt as if she had taken a "safe" option, rather than really pushing her writing boundaries.

It had the the good bones of a good 4 star read, but could have been so much more. Obviously, I am bracing myself for the negative feedback that happens on Amazon reviews; which can be frustrating, as I just try to be constructive in my reviewing ... however, there is always an element of any society that does not accept honesty!

That having been said, I would read more by this author.


Product Details:

As mentioned above, I picked this up as a freebie Kindle download in April 2013, and featured it as a Daily Selection on Amazon at the time.  It is currently listed HERE for £2.70 as a Kindle download - which represents fair value for money.

Historical fiction, with a romantic element
No overt sexual content

Error/Bug Bears:

It was relatively error free from memory (my Kindle is on charge upstairs, so I will have to amend this section if that wasn't correct).


Happy reading.

The Whiskey Tide ~ M Ruth Myers *NEW AUTHOR

Kindle Store > Books > Fiction > Historical

I decided to switch it up a bit today and go for a 20th Century Prohibition Historical novel.  At the time of writing this post it doesn't seem as if anyone has reviewed it yet, so I am taking a bit of a leap of faith here with this recommendation.  It's about three genteel sisters who use their family pleasure schooner to save their family from ruin.

As usual you can find it quickly over at Amazon by clicking the large title just above the cover photograph, or click HERE,

This morning that my Amazon Reviewer status has risen back up a bit to 9,356.  Making significant gains seems to be hard now I've hit the Top Reviewers' List, but thank you to anyone that has taken the time to leave positive feedback over there for me, it is very much appreciated.


I would love to get to the top 1,000 Reviewers' .... so if you find the Daily Kindle Download info useful please go over to my Reviews on Amazon and leave me some positive feedback - which helps my rating, and will earn you my grateful thanks.

Hugs
