Life is complicated. An excellent novelist brings clarity to it. When I close the cover of a book for the last time, I want to feel better for the experience. I want a new understanding of the human condition. For me, Christine Nolfi's The Tree of Everlasting Knowledge delivered all of the above and then some.This wonderful novel begins in the midst of several messy and complicated lives. Among them, a woman attempting to make her way in the man's world of construction, a boss with anger and con...
Omg what an absolutely fantastic book. This is my third book by Christine. As much as I loved all 3 this is my favourite. There is so much more to this book than what the description said.Twice while reading this book I found myself putting down my kindle & thinking I can't read anymore. I was so involved with the characters I was afraid of what was going to happen next. After the second time I put my kindle down I txt my reading buddy Sue & told her what this book was doing to me. I've got a fe...
In the continuing Liberty series, the author introduces us to the Fagan family and gives her readers the back story on the Perini family. The two families are intertwined as family history,drama and romance play out. As is usual with Ms. Nolfi's stories, the principal characters are women. Strong,loving women,often struggling for balance, and always easy for her readers to identify with. Balance is not Rennie's forte. She has her hands full as she struggles to manage and grow her electrical cont...
I started reading The Tree of Everlasting Knowledge and The Mistress of the Art of Death at the same time fully expecting to prefer and finish the latter first. Wrong. And I don't fully understand why that is.I should have hated this book. I despise romance novels so the romance aspect should have been enough to send me screaming for the shredder. Where I like my story-telling to be direct and not too wordy (except for the brilliance that is The Secret Scripture), this book is very adjective-y.
The Tree of Everlasting Knowledge didn't disappoint. In fact, it kept me up until 1:30 a.m. so I could finish it! Christine hooked me with her Liberty series, and I am enjoying my journey through the rest of her novels. She has a way of drawing me in and making me feel like a part of her books. Once again, a big "Thank you, Christine!!"
The Tree Of Everlasting Knowledge is my first novel by Christine Nolfi. It felt absolutely delightful to be so emotionally involved with the characters and the story from beginning to end.A beautifully written family saga involving romance, family ties, heartache, abuse, forgiveness, page-turning suspense and unconditional love.Christine Nolfi's talent for creating such a story is truly a gift!
It's a grand old oak tree that's famous for miles around. People believe that it's magic and lovers gather there in the full moon to receive it's blessing. What people don't know, is that the oak tree holds a dark secret or two.Ourania is trying really hard to live up to the standards of her family. Getting her electrician business off the ground has come a long way. Her newest job, for the Fagan's, could lead her from residential to business prospects, so it's an important job. When her mother,...
I really, really liked this book. It's the sort of book where you get so entranced in the various storylines that you don't realize how much time has gone by as you're reading the book. At first we're following the storyline of Ourania, an electrician who likes being on her own with no ties. Suddenly she becomes the guardian of two foster children. At almost the same time, she's thrust into confronting some painful subjects from the past and comes into contact with some information that could ch...
Christine Nolfi, what can I say! This is the third book I have read written by Christine. I have one more left to read, I hope she's working on more books, as I don't think she can write fast enough for me now. After discovering her with reading Second Hand Grill, I moved on to another one of her books, then another. Each book is very different, but with one thing most in common, it sucks you in until everything around you doesn't exist, and let me tell you, I needed that. I was suffering the en...
I enjoyed The Tree of Everlasting Knowledge, even though there were some slow parts. There were a couple of sections of the book I skimmed because I wanted to catch up to the action. I really like Ourania as a character and her demeanor. She came across to me as one that doesn’t mence words. She’s a head strong business woman that knows what she wants. Troy was annoying to me at times. I wanted him to just say outright what he wanted instead of beating around the bush. My heart was tugged by the...
First off I have to say I put off reading this book for two reasons: (1) For some reason I didn't like the title, I still don't...(2) When I read the synopsis it starts off by saying..."A savage rape..." Now if I know ahead of time I usually don't read stories that involve rape. However, Ms. Nolfi interwove it into the story, but, didn't get graphic with it. (It was not in your face with every little detail.)So, after I faced up to my idiosyncrasies and settled down to actually reading the book
I enjoyed this book a lot. It had the prefect blend of love and danger. The characters were well developed. They were flawed and realistic. I found that I really liked them because of that. I enjoyed the way they interacted and the way their relationships evolved.I really liked the story itself. I liked the flow and the timing of key revelations. I really didn't want to put it down and was anxious to pick it back up again when I had to. I was very satisfied with the ending.Kudos to you, Christin...
