"I loved this novel. It reminded me of all those timeless classics by Jane Austen and the Bronte sisters – a nice, long, book that truly swallows you up and makes you oblivious to the world around you. A beautiful novel! Historical Novel Review
“A lovely, haunting story. The first paragraph drew me in and I could not stop. The author’s writing is superb, like a river flowing through a beautiful landscape that is sometimes light, sometimes dark and threatening. A gorgeous book!” Susanne O’Leary, author of A Woman’s Place
“V.R. Christensen’s work reminds one of literature from the turn of the century, when masterful writers gave their characters emotional gestures and restrained dialogue. A tremendous accomplishment for a contemporary writer.” Janie Bill, author
“What really makes this work is the author’s understanding of social attitudes in the 19th century. An enjoyable read!” N. Gemini Sasson, author of Isabeau: A Novel of Queen Isabella and Sir Roger Mortimer
“Poor Imogen, cursed with money. All the things that money does to a family, the paradoxes of having and not having, of how money ruins the best of intentions, and the author combines all this with writing of the highest quality.” Jeff Blackmer, author of Draegnstoen and Highland King
“What scandalous mystery, what delicately hinted corruption wrought behind closed doors! The dialogue flows effortlessly, drawing the reader into the times. Of Moths and Butterflies is masterful for its genre!” Toby Neal, Author of the bestselling Lei Crime Series
