Karen White is the author of all four of the last books I read. I would highly recommend all of them to anyone. She has a great ability to bring characters to life and make you feel like you are right in the story with them. What I really enjoy is that I feel like I’ve been to all of the cities she has her books set in.
On Folly Beach. This was a fun book to read. It has a lot of interesting characters and is set in Folly Beach, which is a city I would love to go visit. It continues to change from the past to the present to tell the entire story, which seems to be a common characteristic of Ms. White’s books.
The Girl on Legare Street. If you don’t like books that involve sixth-sense stuff (seeing and talking to ghosts), then I definitely would not recommend this book. I enjoyed it, but that stuff doesn’t bother me. After finishing the book though, I learned it was the sequel to another of White’s books, which I read next. Though I didn’t feel confused by having not read the other book first, I would still recommend reading them in order.
The House on Tradd Street. Again, if you don’t like the paranormal, I wouldn’t recommend this. This is the first book in the series that preceded ‘The Girl on Legare Street.’ Only because I had read Legare Street first, this book dragged due to my knowledge of some of the characters and events. Other than that, I now want to go to Charleston because of it. Great book!
Falling Home. Another great book by Karen White. I’m excited she has more that I get to read. I don’t think this followed her other books as a traditional mystery with a love story involved, more the reverse, a traditional love story with a mystery involved. None of her other books have made me cry, but this one did. It pulled on a lot of heart strings and if you like cute love stories, this is a great one!
