This is the first in the series that I read. Usually, I like to read from the beginning, but I was able to enjoy this immensely. I love period books with characters who are feminist and this author described these two sisters well - strong, supporting each other, and not married! Wow! They go around helping others. We need more books like this.

This is a heart-warming story about a struggling high school teacher who meets two children in need of a caring parent.

after taking a break from reading over July 4th it took me a while to get into it again. The battle descriptions are becoming a bit tedious.... but I still find the book overall to become more enjoyable. But Arthur, like a 12 year old despite being so called a "King" in the past life started running from battlefront to battlefront, as if the strategic emphasis that he himself had meticulously worded with long strings of boring text were garbage. He left the frontlines to save Tess, then again to save his parents, whom both turned out to not need the saving.

Very informative and gives insight to knowing someone.

Excellent! I finally found a way to declutter with out it feeling so overwhelming, thanks to this book!!

Intrigue at an elite all girl's school in Scotland. Very creative and haunting.

I wouldn’t say historical fiction is a preferred genre of mine to read, but after many suggestions, I borrowed this book from a friend. I’m so glad I finally read it and I want to recommend it to everyone! It is engaging, the characters are lovable, and the story is both heart wrenching and hopefully at the same time! I absolutely recommend this book to any and everyone!

Excellent memoir of adversity and letting go of an attachment to home, moving beyond guilt, and shedding shame. Tara could have easily fell into the life that her parents lived, but instead chose her own path despite how difficult it was to separate herself from her family, and ultimately losing them at the end.

This is non-fiction. Stephen was four year old in 1942 when he was deported from German occupied Guernsey. He and his parents were sent to a prison camp where they all survived for three years. After the war they returned to their home which had been taken over by another family. Stephen relates the events he remembers.

I love twilight so much!! I love the whole series and the movies!! In my opinion the books are way better than the movies due to detail, but I absolutely love the movies too!! But this book review is about the first book! The first book is very good and it explains how the two main characters (Bella, Edward) fall in love!! This story teaches a lot about love and while keeping it interesting, mysterious, and dark. With LOTS of fantasy too!!
