Rendition Conducive To Books A Song for Summer

Ellen never expected the Hallendorf school to be quite so unusual. Her life back in England with her suffragette mother and liberated aunts certainly couldn't be called normal, but buried deep in the beautiful Austrian countryside, Ellen discovers an eccentric world occupied by wild children and even wilder teachers, experimental dancers and a tortoise on wheels. And then there is the particularly intriguing, enigmatic, and very handsome Marek, part-time gardener and fencing teacher. Ellen is instantly attracted to the mysterious gardener, but Hitler's Reich is already threatening their peaceful world, and only when she discovers Marek's true identity and his dangerous mission does Ellen realize the depth of her feelings for him - and the danger their newfound love faces in the shadow of war.

Evaluate Containing Books A Song for Summer

So much to say about this book, pre-read for Violet...saving for when she's a little older.

This is the kind of book I love: set in WWII Europe, detailed, lovely prose, and character-driven. Highly recommend to anyone who likes Jane Austen and WWII novels. This is historical, romantic fluff that feels familiar and cozy, and it is a great little beach read. Definitely not fine 'literature," but completely enjoyable.

I cannot be objective about this book but honestly every male lead in every romance novel can never live up to Marek, a composer slash handyman who's so good at throwing Nazis out windows that the instant one gets defenestrated everyone in a five mile radius just goes "ah, Marek must be here" . Eva gets it

why does every other person who reviewed this hate joy

If you ever get a chance to read A Song for Summer, for Godssake run away.I haven't had such a visceral negative reaction to a heroine since Twilight. I picture her something like this:"My name is Ellen I was raised by eccentric, rich, and intelligent Aunts in London. They wanted me to go to school for intellectual pursuits, but all I wanted to do was follow Grandpa's housekeeper around! I want to be a housekeeper when I grow up and go work at a school with unruly, Godless children who need to

Im so sad that I read so many negative reviews of this book. Eva Ibbotson is one of my favorite authors since I read Journey to the River Sea in elementary school. I discovered her more adult romances in high school and fell in love with them. The protagonists are all strong women who are such amazingly good people. Reading these books makes me want to be a better person. Yes there is some predictability to the story. The romance genre has certain frequent plot devices like the classic
