[ 3.0 stars ] "I appreciated all the detailed research, however from my perspective, the author made far too many excuses for Branwell's behavior and tried to cast him in a victim role.The author also seemed to seek every opportunity to call Charlotte Bronte's character into question. Midway through the book, these repeated speculations and slanted opinions got really, really old.I thought it had the po ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 4.0 stars ] "This book is a slow read but definitely has information about the Brontes that is not commonly known. It is enjoyable but you need to stay with it. There is a lot of detail about the era in which this talented family lived which gives the reader a better view of their writings. ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 4.0 stars ] "This is a well-written study of the lives of the Bronte family, featuring Patrick, the father and cleric, and Charlotte. Branwell, the only son, also gets his due. I found the first few hundred pages least interesting, with many quotations from Patrick's tracts and the poetry written by family members. Charlotte emerges as a great observer of people around her, a fantastic writer and a passio ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "I am only 200 pages into this book. I am reading it slowly and trying to absorb every word. As I have been a lover of the Brontes and their work since my childhood, I am enthralled with the story and feel as if I am there. The author's scholarship is all-encompassing, and her book reads as if it has been her lifelong work. Bravo, and I am so happy that I have 800 pages to go. It is so exc ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "I highly recommend this book to any serious fan or student of Bronte literature. Thoroughly researched and highly detailed, it begins with the Bronte children's father and ends with the death of Charlotte's husband, the last of the family. Drawing on much more factual information than Mrs. Gaskall's standard biography of Charlotte Bronte, Juliet Barker contends that the entire family w ..." Courtesy by Amazon
