She may dream of travel, but she always envisioned herself ending up at Elm Creek.

This is basically a story about a newly wed couple that headed west during prohibition to start their life together. Interspersed with that story is the story of a family forced to sell their ranch after 2 consecutive years of drought. Hard times hit both families and family quilts held deep meaning for both. I enjoyed the characters and the story which was sad, funny and heartwarming. The narrator was perfect for the story. Many of the male voices she created were hard to tell apart, but because of the way it was written, it was still easy to know who was speaking. I heartily recommend this book.

Heartwarming

I felt a bit torn at times during this story. It may be what made it good. There were some uncertainties I think may be resolved in the next book. These have been a pleasure to keep me company! I highly recommend.

Good but at times difficult

Another good Elm Creek Quilt addition to this most enjoyable series. This one follows Elizabeth and her new husband from Elm Creek to California during the 1920s where a ranch awaits them in an idealic valley. Unfortunately, things don't turn out quite as they hoped and life takes a difficult turn. I very much enjoyed the interesting characters in this Elm Creek story. Chiaverini has developed several complex and interesting "real people" to enhance this story and, as always, her storytelling ability is evident as it's hard to not care what happens to Lars and Rosa and May and others. My only complaint was that I found Elizabeth's tolerance of her husband's self-pity a bit annoying, but I also realize I'm reading about a "good girl" from the 1920s. I enjoyed the book very much and, as always, Christina Moore does an excellent job with narrating Chiaverini's story.

I listen to these books in order and love that some are recent, some go back in time and some filter back and forth. This was a great book and I loved to hear the story of Elizabeth. I remembered her from previous stories, but wished I had recalled more of her story. I liked going back in time, easy listening and another great addition.

Avid Elm Creek fan and this one was great!
