Some readers' comments about Assembling Georgia: Beth Carpel's debut novel, Assembling Georgia, reminds us of what so many authors today seem to lack — the gift of storytelling. Derek Emerson, Blogcritics A fine and recommended read. (five stars!) Midwest Book Review Assembling Georgia is written with deliberate movement, emotional intensity, and characters that linger even after the final page. ...Sometimes when I read a book, my head is filled with other things, only partially committed to the words on the page. With Assembling Georgia, it was almost like someone put a filter on the world around me. Everything got quiet. And I read. Reading for Sanity, book review blog People always ask me what's a good read, and lately I've been telling them, "There's this new book, it's called Assembling Georgia and it's about motorcycles." And people say, "Motorcycles?" I tell them, "You've just got to read it; it's excellent!" Rosemary Manchester, A Novel Idea, KRCB radio It's just wonderful. I finished it today and I loved every word of it. I'm still reeling with thoughts and feelings from it. Heidi Dixon, Eugene Oregon I LOVED the book -- couldn't put it down once I got started.... I fell in love with all the characters.... I should tell you - I read a LOT. There are not many books I can count among my "favorites" but I'll be telling everyone about this one. Peggy Thompson, Las Vegas, Nevada From this morning at 8:30 to this evening at 7 I read your book in one swoop. My head is still full of it! There was no way that i could stop and pause - it just grabbed me and didn't let me go until i was done. I NEEDED to know how it would end!! Monika Zschaebitz, San Francisco, California And from a pre-publication assessment: ...an absolutely gorgeous novel that had me gripped from the first page to the last. ...the characters are all real, moving, heartbreaking and sympathetic. The author has a blazing talent for bringing them all to life. ...a phenomenal talent. |
