In 1860 the Henry Wadsworth Longfellow family celebrated Christmas at Craigie House, their home in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The publication of Longfellow's classic Revolutionary War poem, "Paul Revere's Ride", was less than a month hence, and the country's grave political unrest weighed heavily on his mind. Yet with his beloved wife, Fanny, and their five adored children at his side, the delights of the season prevailed.

What happened to the language?
What did you like best about Sonoma Rose? What did you like least?
I enjoyed listening to Sonoma Rose as I have all of the Elm Creek Quilter series. It has an interesting plot line and keeps you turning the pages. However Ms. Chiaverini has decided to add offensive language in the style of so many other books today. This saddens me because I have always enjoyed her books and felt safe reading them because I knew she wasn't going to throw offensive words in my face as I read. I would recommend her other books in the series but not this one because of the language and the immorality that was presented in a positive light.
What did you like best about this story?
I enjoyed learning about the California wine industry, especially the care of the vineyards, and how proabition put these families livlihoods in jeopordy. She presented the moral tension between keeping this new law and feeding your family very well.
What does Christina Moore bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She is a good narrator and does voices wonderfully.
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
I don't know. I wouldn't like the message it would send that immorality is justified by the circumstances.
Any additional comments?
I love the Elm Creek Quilter series and am hoping she will write a book telling us what happened to Elizabeth. Why did she stop writing to Sylvia?

It's one thing to here Cuss words in a public place or the work place.It's makes a differents in what buy and invite into your home.I've always enjoyed Jennifer's books!!! I always enjoyed the fact that I could share them with my daughters and granddaughters,but if
Jennifer's characters has to use foul words to express themselves I'll have to choose another
author!!!! I've loved her Quilt book series! Love Christina Moore! Good story! HATE foul language!!!!! Yes,disappointed that she had to go with the language!!

Quilts and Wine Country!
If you could sum up Sonoma Rose in three words, what would they be?
Historical, Loving, Real
What other book might you compare Sonoma Rose to and why?
Mary Coin - Part of the two stories take place at the same time and even in similar areas of California. Both books deal with strong women who love their families and are not afraid to work hard.
Have you listened to any of Christina Moore’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I have listened to many of her performances and find her a good reader. She gives each character a voice that one can recognize throughout the story.
If you could take any character from Sonoma Rose out to dinner, who would it be and why?
Rosa/Rose for sure. Her life was hard and she paid dearly for early mistakes.
Any additional comments?
I don't know what "cuss words" other readers are talking about. I never heard one and I listened to the entire book!

Not my favorite Elm Creeks Quilts novel
What did you like best about Sonoma Rose? What did you like least?
I enjoyed the history and the description of setting very much. I got tired of the character, Rosa; while she is protrayed as a strong female character, you never really see her get angry. She thinks fast and puts her children first but other than that, I see her as very passive and got tired of hearing her voice.
What about Christina Moore’s performance did you like?
Christina Moore does a good job with the characters, and showing their emotions the way she does helps the reader to actually feel the way they do.
Was Sonoma Rose worth the listening time?
I'm about half-way through and very bored with it. I haven't decided if I want to finish or not. I have always enjoyed Jennifer Chiaverini's novels so probably should see it through to the end.

Great Story
I inked the strength that Rosa ends up having and how smart she is to get rid of the unwanted men who continually show up in her life. Did they really know back then what the disease of being allergic to wheat gluten was? It seemed like a modern day illness dropped into this story.

Good look at the time/place
I found myself searching the internet when I finished reading this book -- I was that convinced that Rose/Rosa and Lars/Nils and John Barclay must be real people who lived through prohibition in California wine country.
Ms Chiaverini did a wonderful job of research for this fascinating story. I'll read this again...
And enjoy it again.

One of the best Chiaverini Books
This was one my favorite of the many Jennifer Chiaverini stories. She brings the characters to life and makes me feel what they feel and wish for what they wish for. The narration by Christina Moore, as always, is perfect and really compliments the story. I love how the "quilt" theme is somehow always entwined in every one of her stories. I love listening to them as I am working in my sewing room and creating my own works of art!
