A remarkable story
Moyes pens a wonderful historical story in Second Survivor. I have read work from this author before, and I really enjoyed it. It was a remarkable story about Isabel, who survives the sinking of a ship, but she sees it more as an opportunity. The story brings the journey to life, as Isabel tries to put her lavish past behind her, and become someone new. Moyes really knows her history and has done the research to make this story come to life. What an incredible imagination. The characters Isabel meets have a lot of depth, and are more than just cookie-cutter characters, or words on the paper. Isabel is complex, and her back story does lead her on a new path, meeting new people, making her doubt her choices. A very well-written story, and I enjoyed it. It is always a joy to read this author's stories. This author is not just a writer but a great storyteller. This story was intriguing and kept the reader guessing. This read is so engrosssing, it brings you right in the middle of the story. Second Survivor is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews. I look forward to reading many more stories by this author.
