Hester was an excellent story that came to me at the perfect time. I've been going through a classics phase and I had just read The Scarlet Letter right before picking this one up. To say that the story blew me away would be an understatement. I was floored.
The book is so good that I wanted to do bodily harm to every single person who ever hurt Isobel. Her colors made me smile. I truly loved Isobel and enjoyed learning about the New World through her eyes. So much wrong is done to her, yet she perseveres with the unlikeliest of allies.
There is so much to adore in Hester. I can't even begin to do this book justice. I give this novel a full 5 stars. The storytelling is fantastic and brings a whole new life to Hester Prynne.
