The House at the End of the Moor by Michelle Griep
4.0
The House at the End of the Moor was an interesting historical read.
I love Jane Eyre and when I heard that this book had a comparison to that I knew I wanted to read it. Michelle Gripe did a great job describing the scenes she set, from the prison to London, the vivid descriptions helped me feel like I was there. I think my favorite scene described was the moor, I have never seen one in person, but Michelle Gripe brought the look, feel, and smell of it to life for me.
I enjoyed the characters, I thought they had good personalities. I did not particularly care for how some of the characters switched from first-person to second-person point of view throughout the book. However, it did not distract from the storyline too much. The mystery was easy to follow, and I enjoyed the connections made through the characters.
I give this book 4 out of 5 stars for the creative storyline, the interesting characters, and the great scene descriptions.
