Review: To Have and to Hoax

To Have and to Hoax by Martha Waters
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Final Score - 3 Stars

When I read the plot of this book, I was immediately thrilled at getting back into reading historical fiction, as it has been a number of years since I've read this genre. However, this book did not ignite that love that I had for it. Instead, I doubt I will read anything historical for sometime.

The plot took forever to develop and in my opinion - should have come to fruition in half that time. At 25 percent into reading this, I was ready to be done with book - however, when I commit to reading a book ... I COMMIT. It's my fatal flaw and this book nearly killed me to do so.

I have never in my life taken over a week to get thru a book. It just could not engage me with its antics or it's characters.

This book could have been something special - as the blurb foretold - but it's execution was off.
