I don't think her later books were nearly as good as her earlier works. I'm not sure exactly how her writing changed, but I had pretty much given up on her until I read Night of Miracles. That novel was reminiscent of all her earlier books, so I gave The Story of Arthur Truluv a try and it did not disappoint. It seems <i>she</i> is back on track!Les in Oregonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15053880852764886416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-75289827858717627602019-10-27T04:52:39.377-07:002019-10-27T04:52:39.377-07:00For a long time, I was on an Elizabeth Berg kick, ...For a long time, I was on an Elizabeth Berg kick, but---and who knows why?---for some reason I got off track with her stories.

I think she'll really enjoy the second in the trilogy. It was even better than this one, imho. I also think you'd enjoy these, too.
