    This book was hard to put down. It was a thriller in so many ways and so well written.

    Fascinating subject matter. An historical character in unique circumstances. Something truly unique. Based in a true story no one has ever heard of. Well written. Gripping. Wonderful.

  • Too dark for me.

    Horrible, depressing story. I forced myself to keep going, hoping for a bright light to end all this darkness, but gave up 3/4 of the way through- wish I had stopped reading sooner!

  • Appreciated a great read.

    I stayed with Goodman as she wove her story and filled out her characters and really enjoyed reading Isola. Living on a deserted island with the details the author conjured painted a beautiful picture of the island. The emotions were so intense. Thank you. PBD

    Good, maybe likely historical fiction or fully fabricated to time, great idea of St Lawrence Seaway and survival

    While the story is dramatic, the language and style mute the drama to a flat retelling.

  • Good writing, less than new or stellar story

    It read well, I can at that. But the story is not a new theme, even if based on a real incident, and while it has its perilous moments on the island, it doesn’t reach out to delve into the characters very well. Not a high recommendation , I know, but if truly interested get from a library. Don’t waste your money.

  • The story draws you in

    It draws you in and keeps you there, so intriguing is the story of a woman surviving.
