Gertie MacDowell reviewed The enchanted April by Elizabeth
Only sort of enchanted.
3 stars
This book started off a bit slow but got going once the four main characters were in Italy. Of course by then the ending was clear as day but I was still wondering how it would all happen, which it does. That said, the plot came a cropper by the end with each character's development becoming progressively more unbelievable and I was left bewildered on the last page and pondering whether, in real life, such personal changes would be permanent.
Overall, not a bad book but not one for the favourite pile.
