Rebecca reveals exactly what it was like to be trafficked. This story had me laughing, crying, che king my assumptions and ripped open. Rebecca's coming to faith story is so inspiring!

Excellent historical fiction novel! Sue Monk Kidd imagines the life of Jesus's wife. The story is well known but the addition of the historical content of how women were treated and thought of in the time of Jesus is very intriguing. Make sure to read the author's notes at the end of the book for a look at how she developed the concept for the book. A must read for historical fiction lovers!!

This book was not as good as Uprooted was but it was still well written. It was written in multiple different view points, which I think added to the story but there were times when it was hard to tell which person was narrating the story. I've also found that while most of her plot lines are well developed, her romance plot lines are not. They feel out of place and like they just put that as an afterthought. It felt abrupt and unnecessary to the plot, and took away from the magic of the story. Overall though it was a good book, and it's good if you ignore the poorly written romance

I love the book .My favorite part is Dog Man cut the cheese well FARTING. I would like to meet Dav Pilkey.

This story has a lot of heart - not just in the romance part but in other friendships too. It is a feel good book for sure. It was so what easy to predict but the writing style made it worth continuing.

4 stars for a solid addition to this excellent historical mystery series. It is set in London, January, 1814. Alexi Sauvage has introduced Hero Devlin to a 8 months pregnant wife of a recently impressed cooper. Her husband was snatched of the street by a Royal Navy press gang. She is desperate need of food and coal. Hero and her friend Alexi assist her in the successful birth of her child. They are returning to Hero's carriage when they stumble upon the body of a woman. Hero recognizes her as Jane Ambrose, piano teacher to Princess Charlotte, the Regent's daughter. She sends word to her husband, Sebastian St Cyr, Viscount Devlin. Sauvage has told Hero that the body was moved after death, due to the lack of blood from the wound. Devlin decides to investigate what was either a murder or manslaughter. However, the Palace does not want this classed as a murder, because it would embarrass the Royal family. The authorities announce that she died as a result of a fall, hitting her head. Devlin angers some powerful people by investigating and is attacked. He does solve the murder. There are many suspects with twists and turns in the plot. I was not sure of who the killer was until near the end. I like that the author incorporates the use of terms in use in 1814 London: Footpad=robber cutpurse=thief Description of Hero's clothes: "Unable to use her carriage in the snow-filled streets and scorning sedan chairs, she pulled on demi-broquins of fine morocco lined with fur, wrapped herself in a fur trimmed pelisse with a matching Swedish hat fastened up on one side, and walked." The author discusses the plight of the poor, compared with the rich and the inequities of limited suffrage, and limitations placed upon talented women in Regency Britain. I recommend that you read this series in order, as there are developments in Devlin's personal life throughout the series.

Harry has been watching a killer for years. A person who got away with two murders. When this killer is found dead, people around Harry are starting to think that he is responsible . In the meantime, Harry is involved in a trial involving a famous Hollywood producer who is accused of murdering two women. What Harry doesn't know is that this producer arranges for the murder of the killer who Harry has been chasing. Now it is Harry's turn to be accused for the murder of this killer.

I wasn't sure I was going to like this book when I started it but I ended up getting caught up in the narrative and finding it to be a quick read. There is a lot in play in this novel with the main character having flashbacks about growing up in the town she returns to after her mother's death. There are themes of abandonment, mental illness, alcoholism and relationship problems that make the book a little overwhelming at times and keeps the reader on the edge of their seat at other times. Worth the read...

I did not realize how many towns existed across the U.S. I was also concerned that they lasted for so long.
