    Favorite Julie Klassen Book
  

*by L***Y on Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2024*

I just loved this book for many reasons. The plot contained some surprises that caught me totally off guard, as well as demonstrating the emotional and spiritual growth of “Lilly,” who weathered many storms along the way.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    An Interesting & Unique Historical Read

The Apothecary's Daughter by Julie KlassenI got this book a while ago as a Kindle Freebie from Amazon, and it took a while for my interest in reading it to generate.But I will say, I am glad I did read it!The book focuses on the life of Lillian Haswell, the daughter of an apothecary (go figure...) who has been helping her father out in his shop since her mother left suddenly years before.  Lillian was forced to become the lady of the house and watch after her younger brother after her mother's mysterious and sudden departure, but she has always longed for more.  More than just the inside of an apothecary's shop.One day, the chance presents itself when Lillian's aunt and uncle come to visit.  They wish to meet her brother, hoping that as they have no children, they could leave their vast fortune to him.  But they are sadly disappointed to find out that Lillian's little brother, Charlie, though very sweet, is what they refer to as "feeble-minded" and thus not a suitable heir.  However, upon meeting Lilly, they decide to take her under their wing, and Lilly departs to London to spend time in society.The change is huge for Lilly, parties, balls, dancing, the requirements of proper society, but she has her chance to experience more than the world she has known.  She even begins to find clues about the whereabouts of her mother and the cause for her mysterious departure when she receives word that her father has fallen ill and she is needed desperately at home.So Lilly makes the choice, knowing that leaving at this point virtually ensures she will have no chance at making a strong marriage, but her duty to her father is too strong for her to ignore...  Now back in the world of the apothecary, Lilly faces another challenge:  she is in a world of men, where women are not allowed to practice.Lilly works hard to make it appear that her father is in control while secretly doing his apothecary work, and she also has men vying after her heart.Will Lilly find contentment in a life she once wished to leave?  Or will her secret work as an apothecary be her downfall?Read, The Apothecary's Daughter to find out!I must say I enjoyed this book overall.  I knew very little of the apothecary's world before reading it, and the way that Julie Klassen describes things did not make me feel lost, but rather helped me understand the background.It was also easy to empathize for Lilly.  Torn between her home life and wanting adventure, but not finding contentment there...she just does not know where she belongs or how to fit in.  I also admired her strong sense of duty to her father.My only criticism would be the book was long, and in that, it felt long at points.  I cannot pinpoint exactly what made it drag, but here and there it did.  It wasn't a book that I just couldn't put down, occasionally I just had to put it down and take a break.  But nonetheless, I enjoyed it.While I don't recommend this book as a speed read, I recommend it as a great historical fiction read!4 out of 5 stars!

    early book by accomplished regency romance author
  

*by H***S on Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2024*

Drawn in by dynamic dialogue, I quickly became intrigued by Lilly’s longing for her absent mother and her relationships with father, younger brother and the apprentice working in her fathers apothecary shop. An invite to London originally offered to her brother transferred to Lillian. Romantic triangles multiplied..Klassen offered a fragrant insight into apothecary remedies while presenting London and village fashions of the Regency era. Reading on Kindle, I had opportunity to open Wikipedia snippets that explained plants, foods, and carriages of the time. Those who regularly read books set in this era may not need to look up as many as as I did. LOL
