Apothecary's Daughter

De: Julie Klassen

Narrado por: Tavia Gilbert

Lillian Haswell, brilliant daughter of the local apothecary, yearns for more adventure and experience than life in her father's shop and their small village provides. She also longs to know the truth behind her mother's disappearance, which villagers whisper about but her father refuses to discuss. Opportunity comes when a distant aunt offers to educate her as a lady in London. Exposed to fashionable society and romance--as well as clues about her mother--Lilly is torn when she is summoned back to her ailing father's bedside. Women are forbidden to work as apothecaries, so to save the family legacy, Lilly will have to make it appear as if her father is still making all the diagnoses and decisions. But the suspicious eyes of a scholarly physician and a competing apothecary are upon her. As they vie for village prominence, three men also vie for Lilly's heart.©2009 Julie Klassen (P)2009 christianaudio.com

Excellent

I loved the story line, just when I thought I had it all figured out. Shock and excitement . ❤️❤️

The love of family

We sometimes think of fat off places. Thinking that far place would made us happy only to fine this was not the place God had intended for us to be.Time and turning to God Lily place was with Francis. A Godly man that loved God and her.

A good story

I enjoy a story that has love and contentment and that’s what this story is. a good story worth listening to

What a delightful story

What a refreshing Novel. So full of twist and turns. The narrator was quite good.
I had a challenge deciding who she would choose. She had many suitors.

The challenges women faced in those days being discriminated against was so real. Their fight for acceptance was so great! I am glad they paved the way for women to be accepted as human beings with an intelligence.
Great story and one I will probably listen to again.

Wonderful book!

The Apothecary’s Daughter is one of the best I have heard. Just wondering why the reader would announce the next chapter with out giving a pause? It was one second she’s reading the story and in the same breath announce the next chapter! lol Although that didn’t ruin it for me, it was just a wee bit annoying! No big deal though!

Great story

I truly enjoyed this story. I was hoping that Lilly could have found her mother but that never happened. I was happy she found out about Mary. This was a good story.

Historical society rules on women

The story is told with a sweet woman's voice that sounds like someone you imagine from the past talking. The scenery is well set up to make you feel your there. If you are s reader of past, women, struggle to make our place. This is must listen too!

Good story…… it’s just drawn out too long.

Good story and great info on past apothecaries. Just a bit too long of a story.

Glitchy editing/ reading

At times words repeat or glitch out making the story line hard to follow. Disappointing since I love this authors books

good story

My only dissapointment was that they did not show Roderick Marlow settled and happy before the story ended. And that he never voiced his affection to Lilly.
