Book Review: Miss Saunders Takes a Journey (Saunders Saga #2) by G.G. Vandagriff


Miss Saunders Takes a Journey (Saunders Saga #2)

ABOUT THE BOOK

During her second London Season, the Incomparable, Miss Arabella Saunders, is running from gossiping tongues. 
She flees to Bath, accompanied by eccentric chaperones Miss Braithwaite (with her tortoise, Henry Five) and Lady Clarice. Almost immediately two gentlemen enter her circle of acquaintance. Appealing to her adventurous spirit, Mr. Charles Rollins encourages her to emigrate to South Africa with him. Cautious Lord James Eubanks warns her of the perils of such a course. 
The standards of the day do not favor a spirit as independent as Arabella’s. As she bridles at their restraints, events conspire to drive her, first to Alcester, a village in the English countryside, then to a prolonged stay in the Yorkshire Dales.

She is running, but can she outrun her heart? Will she retreat or grasp the future life is offering her?

MY THOUGHTS

This is the first book that I have read from my author. I fell in love with the story synopsis and the cover and was super excited to check out someone new. This book is set in regency era and paid close attention to detail. While I have not read a lot from this era, I felt that I was getting an accurate lesson. The characters are well written. They are written as real people. I liked the eccentric-ness of the characters. It made them unique. You can feel their emotions as you read. While this is a sweet romance book, you will find a few hintings at affairs. The storyline is intruiguing and while this is the 2nd book in the series, I had no problem following along. I enjoyed reading this book and look forward to reading more from this author. 

I recevied a copy of this book through the author/publisher all thoughts are my own.
