I agree with you on The Dressmaker, too. I was hoping for so much more with that book. Good luck with your reading!
The Atonement Child is one of my favourites, but then, Francine Rivers can't do much wrong in my opinion...
What did you think of The Bookstore? I didn't like the story very much, though the writing was beautiful.
