Fair Tomorrow Reviews
-
I read dozens of Emilie Loring books as a teenager, and loved every one. This review is really for all of them. I do remember that this particular one is different in that the heroine is poor, but if I remember correctly most of the books feature a wealthy heroine (it's so much easier to have adventures if you're rich!) who has a very strong set of traditional moral values and ethics. There are always 2 men, a good one and a bad one, and usually a mystery to be solved. Easy, light reading.

Fair Tomorrow by Emilie Baker Loring
Pamela has traveled back home from her newspaper reporting job to take care of her ailing father on Cape Cod.
She wants to get a job in the restaurant but others come to the door asking for the money the father owes them.
Lots of mysteries with jewelery, stamps and other very highly collectible monetary items. -
When I was a teen one of our favorite things todo was walk to the bookmobile every few weeks. I chose Fair Tomorrow on my visit there on Thanksgiving eve and started reading as soon as I got home. Serendipitously, the story began at a Thanksgiving dinner. I read until midnight and started in again as soon as I woke. It was marvelously romantic and thrilling!

I started reading Emile Loring books when I picked up a paperback from a rack in a hotel lobby (for 50 cents) while on my sister's & my yearly vacation to visit my father. Hooked! I went on to purchase and read every Emilie Loring romance written and available in paperback, not knowing, until Goodreads, that she had died before I was even born. I loved these books, but read them all when I was between about 13-14 and perhaps 18 years old - I had favorites and lesser favorites, of course, but I no longer remember which was which. And I was a young reader - so keep that in mind! :-)

Lifelong Favourite
I began reading Emilie Lorings books as a teenager. I have reread them many times, but now find it preferable to read Kindle versions. I was delighted to find this old friend on Amazon, and at an affordable price. I hope to introduce them to my granddaughter one day. -
3.5 stars. I liked this one - actually very compelling characters and plot. I'm deducting half a star because I was annoyed that she didn't communicate well with Scott. Bad communication is the thing that I just absolutely can't stand more than anything. It ruins books for me. And while it didn't quite ruin this one...it definitely made it less enjoyable.

It was ok. I felt like the story line was weak and the book seemed to drag on and on.
I will try another one of her books though. Her descriptions are good. It would probably be better for a younger reader. -
A romance, published in the 1930's.
The overarching themes seem to be positive thinking, hard work, and consumerism.
It has a mystery/court drama aspect that fun and completely inaccurate.
I doubt I'll read any more by this author. -
I read all of Emilie Loring’s books as a teen. Now I return to them over and over again when I want to escape and enjoy a REALLY good book!

My copy of this book ( Fair Tomorrow) has page numbers mixed in with the book itself. It is really a bad copy.
