  • A Triumphant Return to Form
Format: Kindle
Evie Woods has done it again, delivering a sweeping, spellbinding novel that easily stands out as one of the best books around. The Violin Maker’s Secret is a breathtakingly beautiful story that wraps itself around your heart from the very first page and refuses to let go. It has everything that makes historical fiction truly magical: rich atmosphere, deeply complex characters, a haunting mystery, and that unmistakable spark of emotional depth that stays with you long after you close the cover. I am so incredibly glad that she has returned back to her "roots" and left behind a terrible flop of her previous book (The Mysterious Bakery on Rue de Paris). This new novel completely washes away the disappointment of that misstep, proving that Woods is back exactly where she belongs—weaving the intricate, poignant, and deeply immersive narratives we first fell in love with. The storytelling here is flawless. The pacing is perfect, the prose is lyrical, and the way the secrets unfold feels both surprising and inevitable. If you have been waiting for a book that will completely absorb you and remind you of the sheer joy of reading a brilliant story told by a master of her craft, this is it. A well-deserved five stars—Evie Woods is officially back at the top of her game! ... show more

This was a fun read! A love story, with a little mystery and magic thrown in! This is totally different than what I usually read but I loved it - so much fun to read! The Violin Maker’s Secret made my time at the gym pass quickly. I usually read the Author’s Acknowledgements, too and really appreciated how these were handled leaving the author free to give a sincere and interesting albeit brief “Thank You”. ... show more

  • A confusing read
Format: Kindle
The book starts out fine; promising to be an interesting and enjoyable read. However, as seems to be the current style, we are led through a labyrinth of detours into various stages of time, locales, and confusing characters. I started skipping through passages and couldn’t wait until the end to find out what the violins origin was. ... show more

  • Profound and Magical
Format: Kindle
Evie Woods is a profound storyteller. This is the third of her books I’ve read and from the first sentence the magic unfolds, again. Ms. Woods has the gift to weave reality and history into enchanting tales which make sense to the end. Her characters meandering journeys are so relatable and speak to the heart. Following their journeys through life and all it’s failures and heart brake. And in the end, all is right for each of them. Uplifting and wonderful. ... show more

  • "Music help us to feel what words cannot say"
Format: Kindle
Evie Woods did it again, bringing magic to a story to captivate my heart. I got to say even when there moments to laugh at loud, I was mostly in tears as you realized that the words speak truth, and that sometimes the world we dream off as youngsters is not the happy one we thought. The past cannot be changed but you can move forward to something better. These characters were all keeping a pain inside, but together they found the truth they needed to see their lives in a different way. And the violin worked it's magic, and through her eyes we see how that magic worked in all those who had their hands on it. It is a great story, full of music history and even Agatha Christie made an appearance. So I loved it!!! ... show more
