Amazing!
It has everything you could want. Romance, history, fantasy, drama and as the series continues suspense. I can not out it down when I read it. I blew through the series in a week. I can't wait to see how the tv show will come out. This is a must read if you like romance books. It got me in the feels as much as a Nicholas sparks book but different. The character development through out is amazing as well. She is a great writer.

This books cover makes it seem like there a lot of characters. In fact it is mostly just the two main women and their love story. There are different characters who have background voices but they aren't a focus. Some come in and leave by the next page.
While I enjoyed the complex world building and the different interactions this wasn't what I was expecting. Most of the story focused on the love side. The growth of a love story instead of a fantasy story. The F/F relationship was adorable and we'll thought out but took over what I think was supposed to be a fantasy book with a side of romance.
I would highly recommend this to any readers who enjoy romance in a different world. For fans of Ashley Poston.

It's taken me forever to read this. I struggled with it from the start. I've drifted from my love of Paranormal Romances into Contemporary Romance and Urban Fantasy Romances so this just seemed too focused on the romance side of things. Sounds strange, I know, considering that's all I read but...I just couldn't get into it.

The writing seemed so old fashioned in the chemistry/romance parts. It was written back in 2003, when I was 12 and I would probably have loved it back then, but I'm now 28 and I prefer a more modern wording to my romances.

I have a few more paperbacks from this series but I'm not in any hurry to read them.
  
The Mountain Between Us (2017)
The Mountain Between Us (2017)
2017 | Drama, Romance
The Mountain Between Us starts creeping into fantasy — a sensation that becomes more pronounced once Alex and Ben act on their growing attraction. Abu-Assad can’t quite puncture the setup’s romance-novel phoniness, no matter the clear affection
Critic- Tim Grierson
Original Score: 6 out of 10
