Summary: Final story in the "Poor Relation" series... GREAT !
Comment: Marion Chesney continues to delight most with her unusual romp into the strangest arenas! Where does she find her inspiration? REMARKABLE! This final episode is typically full of surprises and hidden romance. Almost driven to suicide by her cruel father, horrid governess and an old geezer suitor, she's saved by the owners of the "Poor Relation Hotel". They take her under their wings and come up with a crazy idea to bring her out for the Season, as a country miss, right under her awful father's nose! She trys to fall in love; misses, but proceeds to save the life of the handsome but naughty Comte de Mornay. This is the craziest of the Poor Relation series, and extremely excellent!
Customer Rating:
Summary: A humorous romance, yet it lacks that certain something.
Comment: I enjoy Marion Chesney's works and highly suggest them to anyone who is just beginning to start reading in this genre. They are all humorous and lively, with just a touch of romance. Back in Society is a fitting end to the sextet The Poor Relation. I found that it was probably ranked third best of this sextet. I preferred Vol.no.3 and Vol.no.1. Volume 6 refines on Lady Fortesque's character and brings out Miss Tonks, who had otherwise been a Nobody in the previous volumes. The humour is definitely provided and the romance is very sweet, as it is in all of her books. However, like most of Marion Chesney's books, this one is missing that certain something. The something that only experienced readers of this genre could find important. I began my reading in the genre with Volume Number 3 of this series, so I must confirm that Marion Chesney is a wonderful author to begin romance with.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Great entertainment, but kind of similar to her other books.
Comment: Marion Chesney's books are very entertaining if you are only going to read two or three of them, or else you would feel like you've read this before.
