Abigail's Window
By Susan Lynn Solomon
Review Written By HeidiLynn's BookReviews
First, I want to thank Susan Lynn Solomon for providing me
with this book so I may bring you this review.
Abigail’s Window by Susan Lynn Solomon is one of the very
few books I have agreed to read in this genre. It is not my favorite genre.
However, Susan’s books are unlike the rest of others that write paranormal
books.
You may ask why she writes unlike others in her genre. For one
she puts humor into her characters and her storyline. I am from Buffalo, NY and
can understand the horrid winters we have. She made some jokes about the bad
winters in the winters here and it cracked me up! Another thing I love about
her writing is that she writes about where she lives in Niagara County, NY. If
you live here you would recognize the places when you read the story. If you
ever come to visit you would recognize the places that are mentioned. When I
read her writing it puts a smile on my face that she writes about where she
lives. This just shows how proud of where she lives and wants to incorporate it
into her writing.
She is also extremely passionate about ghosts and all things
paranormal. You can tell by the storyline and the characters she writes about.
This a is a shorter book with an interesting story.
I actually liked the
story behind the book Anna Karenina and its significance to the story. Also, the
story of Richard and how Gwen’s affair started with him.
