Welcome to Litsy!

I found a few of Kearsley‘s books in a thrift store recently and immediately snatched them up. I have meant to read more of her books but somehow never get around to them. A historical fiction, time travel book with descriptions of Cornwall that made to me add it to my list of places to visit, this book was everything I wanted in my lazy Saturday. I found the ending a bit lacking but overall it fit my mood perfectly.

I am so in love with this book! I think I say this about all of Susanna Kearsley novels but this one stole my heart. With much of her books, this story takes place in the present and in the past. I don't want to give too much away but I will say this, if you loved the Outlander series, you will love this book.

I would recommend this book for anyone seeking a romantic adventure.

📖📚 Happy Reading! 📚📖

Have you ever read a book and instantly thought that they stole the idea from an earlier author? I'm pretty sure this is Outlander...

Slow at first and then Eva finds Daniel in the past and this is a great time travel story. This book is the little sister story of Outlander!:)

A pleasant time slip story which started off a bit slow but made up for it in the final chapters. I always enjoy historical stories with the time slip element and this one was no exception.

Romantic Movie in book form

A very sweet story. If you like historical fiction or time travel romance then this is a great read. It starts pretty slow, and the ending felt a little abrupt, but overall it was very enjoyable.

My six days off went by way too fast 😫 Spending this last precious day lazily. Took a nice long walk as the sun is finally out after days of snow and hiding behind clouds. Now snuggled up with a blanket, tea and book. Should do some cleaning but 🤷🏻‍♀️ this is much better.

Enjoying this brief heat wave before the cold returns tomorrow. #audiowalking

If you like historical fiction with some romance and a little twist of time travel, you might like to give this book a try. The audio is pretty great, too, if you need to use a credit or something. 😉

This was my first book by this author, and as soon as I was done, I added all of her other books to my wish list. A very cool mix of history and time travel, with a nice romance, too. Loved it!

This is a light, sweet book, with enough history to suck me in and the time travel element to keep it interesting. Beautifully written: the setting and the atmosphere of the whole novel are gorgeously done. It‘s a relatively short book, and a little more character development and time spent on the love story might have given it more impact, but I still loved this book.

They can‘t all be Outlander, I suppose. 😍😂

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Started this audiobook this morning and got sucked right in... not sure how I feel about it, but I can‘t stop listening. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Meh. The writing is lovely but it took forever for anything slightly interesting to happen. Lots of telling rather than showing & the romance was rather unconvincing. I've found every Kearsley book I've read to be somewhat dull or boring. I only read this one because it was the book club selection. #romantsy #orsbc

4⭐️ Such a fun, lovely little escape!

I have only a few with a #gardentitle

Susanna Kearsley's THE ROSE GARDEN is only $1.99 across all e-book platforms today!

Delicious, romantic fluff that got me happily to and from Chicago on the train. Set in Cornwall it's a natural choice for Poldark fans (although it's set a bit earlier, historically), it has a Somewhere in Time-esque time travel love story, and some Binchy/Pilcher Aga saga domestic detail. Kearsley writes really well, and the audio version was lovely.

As always, Susanna Kearsley doesn't disappoint. Her blend of history, romance, and the supernatural is spot on and each of her books that I have read has been a delight.

Time travel + historical fiction = Susanna Kearsley Magic

#recommendsday - anything by Susanna Kearsley! The Rose Garden was the first one I read and I was hooked.

Met Suzanna Kearsley at Murder by the Book in Houston, TX. It's an awesome indie bookstore that gets great talented authors visiting all year long. I've read everything Ms. Kearsley has written and enjoyed each word. The Rose Garden is a particular favorite of mine.
