The Nightingale is an amazing story. I could not put this book down. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys historical fiction.

This is such a cute one. If you love little kids and love stories, this is one for you. It's also a story of sisterly bonds. All of which the author fully pulls you into. I really loved this easy read!

4 stars for another rousing historical fiction book by Bernard Cornwell. This is the 51st book that I have read by Cornwell and I enjoyed all of them. I recommend that you start this series with book 1, The Last Kingdom. It is the story of Uhtred of Bebbanburg. In this book, Uhtred faces a new enemy, Skoll, a Norseman, defeated by Celtic warriors in Ireland and now living in Northumbria. He kills one of Uhtred's family and Uhtred swears revenge. I think that Cornwell writes the best battle scenes of this period--about 9th to 10th century. They are so vivid that you can imagine yourself watching the battle in real life. This series has been adapted into a miniseries, available on Amazon Prime, called The Last Kingdom. The miniseries is pretty faithful to the books. One quote: Uhtred on god: "The men who fought for me worshipped a dozen gods and goddesses, The Christian god among them, but if a man believes the nonsense that there is only one god then there's no point in arguing because it would be like discussing a rainbow with a blind man." I read this library book book in 5 days.

I liked this book- it was funny how the dog hid his brush and then got really dirty, and they didn't know who he was!

This is a poignant tale of the sweet magnolias. This particular story follows Helen as she discovers her desire for motherhood. Such a lovely story!

Wonderfully woven story about WWII heroine. I was turning pages all night trying to guess which sister was The Nightingale. The perfect amount of drama and intrigue to make great historical fiction.

We enjoy these as a family. Leo and Dean like to learn about the characters without watching the movies

This story starts out with life of a slave girl name Cora, who is even considered an outcast amongst her fellow African slaves-- runs away and begins a terrifying journey on an actual railroad. This was a surprise because I assumed it was metaphorical like the real "underground railroad" was. I would love to say I loved this book, and in some respect it did. It was very well written, and therefore the horrors of slave life are very strongly accounted for. If you have a vivid story mind like mine, the details of the torcher and abuse was very hard to digest.

Another excellent book by Mary Kay Andrews! 2 thumbs up ????. Couldn't put it done.

Classic Deleware, Sturgis story. The way that the two main characters are always bouncing all the different scenarios that could possibly happen off each other makes it very difficult to figure out who done it.
