Sharon S. (mnphotos1951) reviewed on 8/11/2009 + 10 more book reviews

I must agree with the other reviewers. The first 85% of the book was fascinating - I learned things about London, the people, the culture that I had never read of before. The writing was clear and the story moved itself forward. I would recommend this book to anyone!

But, I never finished it - I hardly ever stop reading a book, but the last part seemed to have nothing to do with the rest of story. I had learned all I was going to learn about the cholera epidemic, so I just put it aside and passed it on.

But, don't get me wrong - this is a book that should be read by everyone, at least the first 85% of it.
