Eva Ibbotson


Normally, I'd talk about a book. And, yes, I suppose that this is talking about a book too, just under the heading of an author. Eva Ibbotson. I'd never heard of her untill the summer of 2009, and yet, I can't get enough of her books now! She was Born in Vienna, Austria, but fled to England when the Nazis took over. And that is where you will find the setting of most of her novels. Vienna. England. Austria. World War Two. They're made for romance-history buffs. ESPECIALLY Austria/Germany history. They are all different, and yet each as equally entrancing as the others. I'm supposing you'll want a list of these AMAZING books now n'est pas? Yes? Then here you go!!

A Song For Summer
A Countess Below Stairs <-(this one is the only one that has NOTHING to do with WWII or austria/germany. Its WWI Russia)
The Morning Gift
A Company of Swans
The Reluctant Heiress

(My personal favourite is The Morning Gift)


These are her main books, although she has some out there for children too.

You can find all of these books at your local book store, as well as used book stores and your local library.

These books all belong to Eva Ibbotson.
