When Heather Jane Bell is diagnosed with alopecia and her hair starts falling out in clumps, she wants nothing more than to escape her home in London and disappear off the face of the earth. Heather gets her wish when her concerned parents send her to stay with a great-aunt in West Yorkshire. But shortly after she arrives, Heather becomes lost on the moors and is swept through the mist back to the year 1833. There she encounters fifteen-year-old Emily Bronte and is given refuge in the Bronte Parsonage.

Unaware of her host family's genius and future fame, Heather struggles to cope with alopecia amongst strangers in a world foreign to her. While she finds comfort and strength in her growing friendship with Emily and in the embrace of the close-knit Bronte family, Heather's emotions are stretched to the limit when she falls for Emily's brilliant but troubled brother, Branwell.

Will Heather find her way back to the comforts and conveniences of the twenty-first century? Or will destiny keep her in the harsh world of nineteenth-century Haworth?

"Absolutely spectacular! I couldn't put this book down, and was mesmerized from the first word until the very last. The Mist on Bronte Moor has made it to my favorites list." ~Kerri Cuevas, author, Deadly Kisses

"...a quick and engaging read that YA readers of all ages will enjoy." ~The Reading Cafe

"Mixing time travel, romance, history, and suspense, this new take on the Brontë family is refreshing and unique. Although a work of fiction, the story makes you imagine what it was like for the Brontë family in the 19th century. The Mist on Bronte Moor brings you on a vivid journey to a historical past." --YA Vixens

5,0 su 5 stelle A Fantastic Read!

I highly recommend this book to anyone who has ever been a Bronte fan. The characters and description of the moors and Haworth were so realistic that I sometimes forgot about the present world around me.

5,0 su 5 stelle An Interesting and Substance-filled Novel
Recensito nel Regno Unito il 28 luglio 2018
Acquisto verificato
It’s hard to find convincing, interesting, and well-written time travel novels, but Aviva Orr has managed to score on all three of those points. Although her main character, Heather, is fictional, the majority of the other characters, as well as the locations, are all taken straight from history. The author is obviously an excellent researcher and has even provided a bibliography at the end of the novel – something I’m not sure I’ve ever seen in a novel before.

As well as providing an imaginative story, the book also gives some interesting and detailed insight into the lives of the young Bronte sisters and their brother, Branwell. Each chapter is introduced with a few lines of poetry or prose from Emily Bronte.

I did find the ending slightly disappointing and felt that the author could have developed Heather’s modern-day story a little more. Although Ms Orr did really well on the whole with her language, there are some Americanisms that are evident to British readers. However, those things didn’t really detract from being able to enjoy this interesting and substance-filled novel. I would highly recommend The Mist on Bronte Moor to readers of all ages, but it would be an especially good read for teenagers who are perhaps studying Wuthering Heights or Jane Eyre and would enjoy some background information about those books’ authors.

5,0 su 5 stelle A Brontë Fan Must-Have
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 10 marzo 2013

4.5 stars
Amazing. Beautiful. Bittersweet. These are the words that sum up how I would describe this book.

First, let's talk about Heather. Her struggle with alopecia is apparent from the first page, and it is very well written. Some reviewers claim that she didn't struggle with it as much as she should have while staying with the Brontës, but I say nay-nay. The girl was in 1833; she had other things on her mind, and it is still a fairly big struggle in the story, so I don't agree with them. The one thing that I feel is inconsistent as far as the alopecia goes is the cover. In the book, she has to cut it off, but on the cover she is pictured in the graveyard with long flowing hair. That's it. And I didn't care about that at all, so in my opinion, it was flawless. I thought it was a bit strange that she didn't realize she had traveled back in time sooner, because even though it seems far fetched, there were so many obvious signs! Other than that, I thought she was a great main character.

The love story was a bit of a love-hate relationship for me, and probably the only reason this book isn't getting five stars. In the 1800s, I am almost certain it was not common to snuggle by the fireplace. Especially after you have only known the person for two weeks! Once I got over that little fact, I was soon in love with Branwell. He was so charming, yet he had a vulnerable side to him as well. I did not know the Brontës had a brother, and I looked him up while reading this because I was so interested. He seems like he was very talented, but for reasons that I won't tell you because they might spoil the book, he never became as famous.

As some of you may already know, I have a Brontë obsession. Currently, I'm trying to read every single book they ever wrote. So now I will go on a rant on how I think it is completely AWESOME that Charlotte, Emily, and Anne (kind of) were all main characters! I know this book is fictional, but I feel as if I got to know them by reading this. Silly, right? Still; I will never look at Jane Eyre the same way again.

Now, the ending. Don't worry; there's no spoilers here, but I feel like I need to say that the ending was a rollercoaster of emotions for me. I don't know how to say it any differently. It was not an ending that completely killed my happiness and made me want to curl up into a ball and sob(Mockingjay!) but it was not a happy, sunshine and rainbows, and they all lived happily ever after ending. I loved it.

I know that if I don't end this soon, I will ramble on and on, so I'll close with this; The Mist on Brontë Moor is one of the best books I have read this year. It's the kind of book where you become overly attached to the characters and feel sad when it's over. I have no idea if there could be a sequel to this, but if there is, I would buy it in a second. You need to read it!

5,0 su 5 stelle Toll!

Während man die Geschichte aus Heathers Sicht verfolgt, einem Mädchen, das an Alopecie erkrankt ist (Haarausfall) und sich aufgrund dessen ins Moor von England zurückzieht, lernt man die Familie der Brontes kennen, so wie sie gewesen sein könnten. Die Charaktere sind liebevoll beschrieben, auch wenn die Tante und das Hausmädchen ein wenig schroff herüber kommen. Aber letztlich werden sie ja aus der Sicht eines Mädchens des 21. Jahrhunderts beschrieben. Dennoch kann man die guten Seelen der beiden auch trotz der negativen Beschreibungen herauslesen, das ist der Autorin sehr gut gelungen.
Das Buch macht einfach nur Spaß. Es fesselt vom ersten Augenblick an und erweckt die Lust, auch die Werke der Bronte-Schwestern zu lesen (sofern man das noch nicht hat). Hier ist sehr viel Herzblut aber auch Recherche in einen Roman geflossen, der alles hat, was es braucht. Eine interessante Geschichte, eine interessante Handlung, geschichtliche Fakten, um das Ganze abzurunden. Top!

4,0 su 5 stelle Stick with this one to the end in order to appreciate it
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 27 maggio 2021

I give this book a reluctant 4 star rating.

My expectations for this story were misplaced which led to my feelings on this story.

Please go into this book with the expectation of meeting, interacting with and living for a time with the Brontes. This book does an exceptionally good job of letting you see and understand the characters (family of Brontes) as real people. What shaped their thoughts, feelings, actions and even their short-comings.

If you stick with the book until the end, you will experience a satifying finish. The Author's Note puts a nice ribbon on the whole package and completely changed my initial feelings at the conclusion of the story.

If you are a fan of the Brontes, you will enjoy this book greatly.
