The Guest Book
by Sarah Blake
The Guest Book (4/29/2019)
I really liked this book. The story was engaging and the characters were fully developed. She captured the culture of our country during WWII and the racism towards Jews and Black people at that time in a compelling way.I would recommend this book to our younger generationmore
The Kennedy Debutante
by Kerri Maher
The Kennedy Debutante (6/23/2018)
I loved this book. It is the most enjoyable read I have experienced this year. I knew nothing of the Kennedy women and enjoyed learning about them even though this was a fictional story. I never realized how much their religion affected their lives.
The French Girl
by Lexie Elliott
The French Girl (10/8/2017)
I did enjoy this book. It is not a story line that I would have chosen to buy, so I'm happy I picked it to review, I loved the way she intertwined the relationships between the characters and drew out the suspense. She tied everything together in a neat little bow at themore
The Scribe of Siena
by Melodie Winawer
The Scribe of Sienna (5/30/2017)
It was kind of a slow start, but once Beatrice was transported to Siena to the year 1347 the pace quickened. The research that the author did was excellent. The characters were believable. I enjoyed the story very much.
