The Uncertain Season

De: Ann Howard Creel

Narrado por: Brittany Pressley

In hurricane-ravaged Galveston, a storm of betrayal is brewing.

Nineteen-year-old Grace's golden age is just beginning. She and her mother live a privileged life. Beautiful and talented, Grace is looking forward to a pleasant summer celebrating her engagement to a wealthy young gentleman.

But when her lovely, charming, and disgraced cousin Etta arrives, Grace finds her place in society - and in her mother's heart - threatened. Etta enchants everyone as she maneuvers to secure a station in Galveston's upper echelons. Grace, in a reckless moment, reveals Etta's scandalous past, and as punishment, she's sent to work in Galveston's back alleys, helping the poor. There, a silent waif known only as Miss Girl opens Grace's eyes to new love and purpose. She's determined to save this girl who lost her entire family in the hurricane and now slips along the shadows of the unfinished seawall with a mysterious resolve.

Soon, the lives of the three young women will converge as betrayal, mistaken identity, and a family secret that sweeps them toward a future that defies all expectations.

Wanting more

Love Ann Howard Creel, but this book left me hanging, wanting more I felt it was a rushed ending.

The book that goes no where

I kept waiting for a resolution, it never occurred. Ethereal characters but without substance. Why?

Enjoyed it from start to finish

The characters were convincing, whether I like them or not. The narration was very good, this story held my attention.

Enjoyed the story

The ending of this story frustrated me. I was waiting on this fabulous ending but never happened.

Uncertain Season

I love American Historical Fiction. This one was a bit Blah, could have been bettrr.

Sweet

enjoyed it immensely! It had to do with family, money, and secrets. narrator was excellent

Very different approach to a hurricane.

The story line was a little had to get into. But once that was set the story was very moving and interesting...I highly recommend this book!

No ending.

I was really interested in this book because I have visited Galveston and studied about the hurricane that hit in 1900. The story was a little slow but, good descriptions of what was going on after the hurricane and building the wall. The narrator was ok. It seemed there was a consistent rise and fall with every sentence that got irritating at times. The thing I disliked about this book was the ending. There were 4 main characters and the book ended without ever disclosing what really happened in any of their lives. I was really disappointed!

the uncertain ending.

I loved this right up until the ending. All that character development and no real ending. just....ugh. made me wish there was another five chapters or so to flush out the ending more.
