Lindsey, have you read the Doll Factory and Circus of Wonders by Elizabeth Macneal? I'm reading her latest book, the Burial Plot and it's exquisite. I don't read a lot of historical fiction but I love her books so much ❤
The Mona Lisa was fun! And Remarkably Bright Creatures was so good. I need to try Rebecca Yarros.I’m curious about Casual Vacancy. I’m not a Harry Potter fan, well all my grandchildren are. I just am not into wizards etc. Anyway I think Casual Vacancy could be good.
totally agree with you - I am always recommending much older books to people - showing my age I think!! Sarah Donati's 'Into the Wilderness' series was so good. if you like long series I also am always recommending The Morland Dynasty series by Cynthia Harrod-Eagles. ( it's longgg but not a series I read back to back ) Remember 'Evergreen' by Belva Plain? she's another author I recommend to those that love Rosamund Pilcher.
@JacquelineCaron Maybe you're right about age. I'm 68. Lol. And I remember Evergreen. Have it on my shelf. Never heard of the Morland Dynasty but will check it out. There was something better in the writing of older books.
Loved the Women by Kristen Hannah! I was a teenager during that time and remember so well how the men were treated. Didn't know about the women until I read the book. Frozen River was ok to me. Just for the Summer was way too much fun and loved it as well. My favorite new to me author is Megan Goldin with Escape Room being my favorite.
Lindsey I finished the women myself. I was not in Vietnam myself but in army and Vietnam vet. I just finishing all the colors of dark. You would like this. It is thriller and has short chapters.
I just finished The Frozen River but it is an entirely different book. I think I read the wrong book for book club! Great video, Linsdsey! I didn’t love The Casual Vacancy. Hope you do!
Yes! The Women was fabulous. Anything by Jodi Picoult is amazing-my favorite author. I also did not like The Lioness, I DNF'd it. His next book. The Princess of Las Vegas was very good.
