I bought the book because I am from Niagara Falls. I told my parents about it and my dad already read it because my aunt who lives in Texas also read it and sent it to him. He loved it. It is one of those books that lingers for awhile. I cannot say enough about how incredible this read was. Not just because I am from Niagara Falls but because of how Catherine writes. It's a beautiful story. She uses fictional history but you there is a lot of non fiction in it. She really makes you appreciate the beauty of Niagara Falls and the land along with so much more. The era and the description of the area and life and times are so true to life. This woman has an amazing ability to do her homework because there are many techncial terms involved in the making of the generation stations and height of the flow of the river etc. Truly put together to make a warm, memorable love story not just about people but about land. She also mentions that she is trying to conserve skyline above the Falls and she is on the committee to help save Loretto Academy from destruction. This book wowed me. I am in love with this couple and will always be a river girl and proud of it no matter where I live in Canada.

One of my favorite books. This book is full of humor and wisdom. I found myself laughing out loud. I didn't want it to end.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book. Very interesting childhood memories. Excellently written - keeps you wanting more. I would read this author again.

This is a humourous recollection of a young Catherine Gildiners life. It was written incredibly well and is full of the innocence only a little girl can possess. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves to read.
