Review: Always Emily- Michaela MacColl - April 2014

Oh, how I love renditions and stories based on the Bronte sisters and my favourite classic tales of Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre. Always Emily takes us into the family life of the Brontes starting with the death of their mother and two sisters and then Charlotte's move to boarding school and eventually Emily's.  Emily is unhappy at school and somehow ends up sick and sent home where she is comfortable wandering through the Wuthering moors which inspired the book "Wuthering Heights". Soon Charlotte returns home after the school catches her writing about handsome Dukes etc as this is deemed inappropriate for a governess. During this time though, their neighbour Mr. Heaton has been killed and it seems that is son Robert stands to inherit the entire fortune but Robert has a secret, a dark one that the Bronte Sisters seem fit to discover and sought out the truth as he is hiding and making his sister Rachel go mad so he can inherit everything and he is using his powers and connections as a Freemason to make it work to his advantage. Can the girls stop him before he commits his wicked ways with Rachel and have her admitted to the asylum. This event is where the book "Jane Eyre" was inspired from.  
If you love the Bronte Sisters, then Always Emily is the perfect read for you and I will state that you will find it as awesome as I did and enjoyable and worth your time.
