Book Review of
Shadow of Swanford Abbey

Lynn's Review

Shadow of Swanford Abbey by Julie Klassen was published in 2021. It is Christian historical fiction.

I love to read Julia Klassen books when I need an easy light read. Sometimes I just need a book that does not take a lot of thought.  I usually read one or two of her books a year. This month I read two. I just needed some light easy reading this month. Julie Klassen’s books worked for exactly the reading mood I was in. 

Rebecca Lane returns to her small village after being away. Her struggling writer brother needs her help. The story involves an old abbey, a famous author, family secrets, a death, a mystery,  and of course some romance. 

If you like clean historical fiction this is a good one. Just don’t expect a lot of depth to the story or characters. It is a good, but predictable read.
