The Tree Bride : A Novel
3 journalers for this copy...
This Advance Reader's Copy was purchased at a bookstore which is going out of business. The woman behind the counter said they didn't think the publishers would come after them since they're going out of business anyway.
I finally pulled this one from the stack of books and read it. It was often confusing because it jumped from present time to the past, and farther past, and back again. It also jumped from America to India to England. I never really understood the reason behind the violence against the main character, but I did enjoy the look into India and its customs. I think I would have enjoyed a book which just followed the story of John Mist or the Tree Bride in a direct chronological line better than this one.

I found this book yesterday at work. The lady that dropped it off was very nice and explained to me about Book Crossing. I think it's a great idea and intend to stay involved!

I left this book where I found it on Sunday. I noticed a couple sit and read the book for a little while and then left with it! Happy reading!
we found the book on a bench near the Wycliffe Mounds State Historic Site. I have read it in entirety. I am willing to pass it on to another reader. Regarding the content, I was interested in the characters and material about India and the ex-pat Indian folks who live in the SF area; I thought the old historical stuff about colonial India and some of the Brits who lived there was less interesting, and there was too much of it. I liked the two Taras the best. I might look for the other novel about the "contemporary" Tara up and maybe get it from a library. I plan to drop off the book soon for the next reader. Thanks.
