Book Review for "The Thirteenth Tale" {by Diane Setterfield}
A: The Thirteenth Tale is a novel framed and shaped, virtually permeated, by books. From the fictional book referred to in its title to Margaret's deep love of books — deeper than her affection for most people — to Miss Winter's renown as a great author, books are the lifeblood of the plot.
What do readers think of The Thirteenth Tale?
The ending was very satisfying and all the questions were wrapped up nicely. I highly recommend. Stacy. The beginning. It is a book that was well written and very imaginative in its telling, but the beginning of the novel is a bit dry and long-winded in it description. Charla Wilson. A twist around every corner. Ahhh!
