Reviews for In the High Valley

[tronella_1 · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

The last of the Katy series. More interesting than the previous two, but the ending was not very satisfying and all of the female characters seem to end up having the exact same personality. They all live happily ever after, as polite well-dressed housewives who are good at decorating but not too snobby.
