Went to B & N last night and bought Necessary as Blood by Deborah Crombie and The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent.

The Heretic's Daughter is already on the wishlist, otherwise your review would have forced me to put it there :)

50) The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent (review)

OK, that list was way too long! I've deleted it. If anyone wants the alphabetized list, tell me and I'll send it to you.

... books with Boston (or Boston area) settings are some of the classics such as some of Hawthorne's books. I also enjoyed The Heretic's Daughter recently which of course was historical fiction set on the North Shore.

#7 and 8 - add my vote for The Heretic's Daughter. I liked it even better than Deliverance Dane, although I thought that was a good book too.

The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent is fantastic, I can't recommend it highly enough.

Due to your mention, I've added The Heretic's Daughter to my wishlist. Enjoyed and thumbed-up your review of it, too. I always appreciate the 'personal' point of view in a review. Great review. Ditto The Meriwether Murder on all points. Conversely, I knew that I wouldn't be interested in ...

... imo. Some greater than others. I'm just starting The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane. It sounds suspiciously like The Heretic's Daughter, which I LOVED, but I don't mind -- I need a good witchy book right now.

#193 if you liked the The Heretic's Daughter and The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane then I would definitely suggest you check out Susannah Morrow by Megan Chance.

I just started The Physick of Deliverance Dane - I like it so far.... I seem to be following a pattern - finished The Heretic's Daughter not long ago and loved it!

Yippee! I got a mooch today. The Heretic's Daughter by K. Kent.

... So now I must move on, my to-read list currently is Cover The Mirrors, The Poisonwood Bible, Shadow of The Wind and The Heretic's Daughter. Many more but that'll do for now.

Book #4 The Heretic's Daughter was a good read, but kind of slow. The first half of the book is more a description of daily life in the colonies. While this is interesting, it feels as if you are just waiting for the actual witch hunt to begin. I found the main character's family to be quite ...

I am in the middle of The Heretic's Daughter. It is an interesting, fast read and with the rainy night here I will probably be finished the book later tonight.

#86 The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent

Yes, the Heretic's Daughter sounds very interesting indeed. Another for the wish list.

The Heretic's Daughter sounds fascinating. Thanks for the description. I've added this to the tbr ever-growing mountain.

78. The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent. I really enjoyed this novel--highly recommend it. The narrator, 10-year old Sarah Carrier, lives in Andover, MA at the time of the witch hunts in nearby Salem. The novel is based on a true story: Sarah's mother Martha was hanged for ...

Well, I just ordered the audio version of The Heretic's Daughter and managed to snag a swap copy of In the Devil's Snare. Both sound fascinating!

... your posts were various Joyce Carol Oates novels (i.e. Blonde), Curtis Sittenfeld's American Wife, Kathleen Kent's The Heretic's Daughter (descendant or not, she wrote that story with much creative license) and so on. Maybe the cellist is upset he didn't get a cut of the proceeds?

Trish - I will definitely add The Heretic's Daughter to my TBR list. I have read only a bit about this time period, so I'm excited to read more. But mostly I want to read the book because your review made me want to know Sarah better. I'm anxious to learn more about how her relationships unfold ...

Coming off the heels of the wonderful Heretic's Daughter, I started Forsaken my June ER book (I've put this one off too long). It's not fabulous. I'm about half done, and it's easy and quick reading, but it's not great literature, that's for sure. I'll probably finish it tonight, and be ...

I'll have to pull out Heretic's Daughter. I got it as an ARC but it's kinda down the pile. (This happens when you leave the country for 3 weeks and only have time to read info pertinent to the trip while there.) johanna, glad you enjoyed I Am Legend. It is practically a different story ...

I also just started The Heretic's Daughter and I'm finding it a great read.

#224 - I loved The Heretic's Daughter. I agree with you about the writing. I had to re-read The Eight first, but finally started The Fire a couple of days ago. I'm really enjoying it.

I just started The Heretic's Daughter after a brief break from arcs, and I'm finding the writing to be lovely. The language is so descriptive and beautiful without being overly flowery. I've not gotten too far into it, but it's got the potential to be among my favorites for the year.

I have a copy of Guernica that I would like to trade for The Heretic's Daughter or the Whiskey Rebels. If you are interested, please PM me.

#40 The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent

... and I only post here and on Amazon, if the book has been released as noted by #2 Donura1. I'll be posting my review of The Heretic's Daughter on Amazon when it's released.

I have absolutely adored the last two ARCs I've read - both historical fiction. Stealing Athena and The Heretic's Daughter. I'm out of the slump.

... - we're read in opposite order. I finished Stealing Athena a while ago and loved it. I'm close to being done with The Heretic's Daughter which is turning out to be a better read than I thought it would be when I was halfway through.

I'm in 1692 Andover/Salem for the witch trials in The Heretic's Daughter, an ARC by Kathleen Kent.

I'm about halfway through The Heretic's Daughter. Really great read. I'm also a couple chapters into Stealing Athena, haven't really formed an overall opinion yet.

... love Bryson's books! I've already read Short History twice and am sure I'll re-read it in the next year or so. From The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent, an ARC: "The day had been so very lovely, the summering shades of plant and rock and sky showing the goodness, the ...

I'm reading an ARC called The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent. It's enjoyable but not gripping. I'm also slowly working my way through The Power Makers by Maury Klein. Next Friday I'm going to be getting Breaking Dawn back from my co-worker (I loaned it to her for her ...

... internalizing pressure to read/review them before their release dates. Anyway, I'm reading and enjoying but not loving The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent. I'm also slowly working my way through The Power Makers by Maury Klein a very good but slow read.

I'm reading The Heretic's Daughter and The Power Makers. I really am enjoying Power Makers but only picking it up rarely.

... you think of Break With Charity, I have that one on my shelf at home. And if you like Witch Trials stuff you might like The Heretic's Daughter as well!

... nicely. All in all a good read. So far in August I'm reading Eclipse, The Power Makers, and anticipate starting The Heretic's Daughter, an ARC, and The Road for bookclub. And, finally, I joined BookMooch in July and have sent out 15 books and am waiting for 10! It's a blast. My ...

I finished The Heretic's Daughter (and Breaking Dawn!) My reviews are here and next up I think I'll be reading Creepers which looks like a cute day long read. :) I can't believe I'm actually getting through my ...

I got Heretic's Daughter and I'm really enjoying it. It's the first arc I've received in awhile that I like.

... been a sci-fi fan and it definitely reaffirmed in my mind that Meyer has talent as a storyteller. I'm onto an ARC of The Heretic's Daughter now and hoping to finish it before BD comes out.

Is anyone else still waiting for The Heretic's Daughter? I requested it 6/17 thru Shelf-Awareness. I see others have received it, so I'm starting to give up hope :( Yes, of course I have books lined up. ARC JUNKIES - appropriate name for this thread!

... a copy of So Long at the Fair waiting for me. I still have to write and post my reviews for The Watercooler Effect and The Heretic's Daughter. I hope to have those written this week, and then will start a couple of the other ARCs on my shelf. So many books, so little time!!

16. The Heretic's Daughter by Kathleen Kent - finished this in the evenings at Camp Bluegrass. I really enjoyed it, but wish there had been some endnotes. Since this was an ARC, I'm hoping the released book will have notes. I'm sure the author did lots of research for this book, and I would ...

... I need a break from literary fiction stuff so now I'm reading The Host by Stephanie Meyer but next up on my list is The Heretic's Daughter.

... four others, although I'm not holding my breath for three of them: I think if I was going to get The Heartbreak Diet, The Heretic's Daughter or The Richest Season, I would have received them by now. I'm still hopeful that I might receive The Grift.

I finished Living Dead Girl which I would be willing to swap for American Wife Heretic's Daughter or The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher Somehow, I know these don't seem like fair trades since Living Dead Girl is so slender a novel!

... same genre all the time, but to branch out more. Here's to hoping! So far... 1. The Friday Night Knitting Club 2. The Heretic's Daughter 3. Tan Lines 4. Last Dragon (Discoveries) 5. Smoke and Mirrors 6. The Stand 7. Confessor 8. Kushiel's Justice 9. Kushiel's Scion ...

... American Wife right now and it's kind of dragging a little. Hopefully it will pick up soon - next up will probably be The Heretic's Daughter.

... - to sum it up, I don't think I'll get Living Dead Girl, it might have to be a library request! Also received Heretic's Daughter yesterday, thru the mail.

I got a hardback copy of Tan Lines today. I am still hoping So Long at the Fair and Heretic's Daughter make it to me...

Got Heretic's Daughter in the mail today.

... and just had too many AALL committments to make it there. Jen says she picked up something for me though. I'm reading The Heretic's Daughter. It's pretty good so far. Then we're on vacation (Camp Bluegrass), so I probably won't get much reading done. I'll take some mindless stuff with me ...

Ok, in addition to The Aviary Gate, I'm interested in a copy of The Heretic's Daughter. If you use bookmooch, I'd be willing to give you a point each for them. Just send me a PM. Thanks.

... a 3 year old and a baby, I can read more then 50 books in a year. Kinda hoping to expand a bit on different genre's. 1. The Heretic's Daughter 2. Tan Lines 3. Last Dragon 4. The Richest Season 5. Smoke and Mirrors To be read : Stealing Athena and I, robot

Just read a review in PW about The Heretic's Daughter...let us know what you think about it.

I just started an ARC of The Heretic's Daughter that is pretty good so far. I didn't realize when I requested it that the author is a descendant of the people she is writing about, so that just adds to the interest.

... The Watercooler Effect by DiFonzo...it's the only one I haven't written a review for (that I'm DONE with). I am starting The Heretic's Daughter by Kent tonight. Alas, I'd like to think I'm getting a break, but I actually got notified earlier this week that I"m getting a copy of Stealing Athen ...

I received The Heretic's Daughter today and can't wait to start it!

Yay! I got back from vacation and had The Gargoyle and The Heretic's Daughter waiting for me!! AND since I should have American Wife coming soon, I think this is the first time that I'm not bummed out at the "sorry, maybe next batch" notice from Abby. :)

Oops! It is July now!

I got The Heretic's Daughter and The Watercooler Effect yesterday as well, but I'm still waiting for The Power Makers - and it's the first I requested from Shelf Awareness. I've started The Watercooler Effect and am already impressed by the readability of this book on what could be a very dry ...

Holy Moly! I received The Heretic's Daughter, The Power Makers and The Watercooler Effect yesterday. I emailed all of them via ads on Shelf Awareness.

I got a copy of the Heretic's Daughter in the mail yesterday, with no confirmation e-mail from Shelf Awareness, so there is hope! And I also emailed the author of the Forbidden Daughter asking for a review copy. She said she'd mail me a galley a week or so ago, but I've yet to receive it :-)

Got two ARCs in the mail today: The Heretic's Daughter and The Watercooler Effect. Both look pretty good and are the first ARCs I've gotten that weren't LTER book, so I'm pretty excited.

I got my copy of The Heretic's Daughter this morning. Looks like a good book!

I got a copy of The Heretic's Daughter in today's mail if anyone is waiting for that one.

... regardless of how weird things get, there's a "happy" ending to the story. Next up is my first ARC from Shelf-Awareness, The Heretic's Daughter. I'm looking forward to it.
