Über diesen Titel
Linnea Bradenborg expects to find culture and excitement in Alamo, North Dakota, where she's recently been hired as the new schoolteacher. Instead, she finds a sparse little town in the middle of nowhere. Better yet, her train is met by a cantankerous wheat farmer named Theodore Westgaard who doesn't bother to hide his displeasure when he discovers that L. I. Brandenborg is a woman and not the man he was expecting.
Westgaard thinks twice about bringing Linnea home to live with him, but he soon realizes that he has no choice. All of the town's past schoolteachers have lived with the Westgaard family - made up of Theodore, his mother, and his teenaged son - due to their farm being located very near the schoolhouse, and so Theodore allows Linnea into his home. But who could have guessed that this young, independent woman would soon find her way into the handsome farmer's heart?
A compelling classic to be listened to again and again, Years is a fitting tribute to the pioneer schoolteachers who braved many hardships to share the gift of knowledge with countless children.

Good Story
The story was good, lovely characters. Sadly the main narrator has an irritating voice. Thank you.

Naff
I usually savour novels, taking my time to read them or (if on audio) listening to them at standard speed. I know when a novel is bad, because I find myself speed-reading it (or listening on a faster audio speed setting) and eventually skipping sections. In places, it provoked disbelieving sighs and eye-rolling, as it was just so naff. Cheesy and predictable. At times, certain scenarios made no sense whatsoever. Eg. The two main characters not recognizing each other at first, while they were both the only passengers in the station, but the station assistant had told her that he knew the man and hadn't seen him that day. Yet he was right there! An empty station except two people and an assistant, who said he knew one of them but claimed that person wasn't there. Remember that a train station in North Dakota in the very early 1900's would not be so big that you wouldn't notice someone waiting for a passenger to arrive. This flaw was in the first chapter and it didn't get much better. Spencer's descriptions were good, but a novel needs more than that. Plot, characters, timing, accuracy - all felt off.
I won't consider another novel by this author.
