A Song that Never Ends

A Song that Never Ends is the first installment from the Hamilton Place series by Mark A Gibson. I found this book to be a perfect introduction to this author. His vivid details of the time, settings, and place were so detailed that I felt as though as I was right there experiencing the story in real time. I enjoyed beginning my travels to Appalachia in the state of South Carolina and meeting the Hamilton family. This tale gave me a variety of emotions. I never knew what to expect from page to page, scene to scene. One moment, I am smiling and feel my heart warming, while grabbing my box of tissues, the next moment. There was no shortage of drama. I thought it was great and with the cliffhanger of an ending, I have got to know what will happen next with this family saga. I am giving A Song that Never Ends a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for readers who enjoy reading historical fiction, as well as, family sagas. I am eagerly awaiting to read the next installment from the Hamilton Place series, Roses in December, to see what Mark A Gibson has in store for his characters, readers, and fans. This one is not to be missed. I received a paperback copy of A Song that Never Ends from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
