These are my two all time favorite letter "B" books:
Beneath A Scarlett Sky by Mark T. Sullivan
The Bronze Horseman by Paullina Simpons (tagged)
25 of 2022. Book 2 Day 5 for #marvelousmarch . I really enjoyed this book. Tatiana irritated me a little at times, but that could have been the way it was read since I listened to the audiobook. It was a little long winded in places, but still a great story. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨
Total pages read: 1278

2 I want to start a small scale business for my crafts. I started a Facebook business page. I love to knit baby afghans.
3 I am grateful for having my Abby for four more days before she leaves to go back to college. It hurts so much. That is why I am knitting like a fiend. I can't concentrate on books.

Day 17 #20Series20Days @andrew65
I cannot believe I came close forgetting about this series. Bingeworthy over and over again.
Day 14 of #20Series20Days #Top20Series
Oh Em Gee, this series right here has to be on my list. Gorgeously written historical fiction starting in the Siege of Leningrad...powerful and affecting with fantastic characters in Tatiana & Alexander with romance and some extremely hot steamy scenes for icing on the cake. 🥵😍
This trilogy by Paullina Simons starts with The Bronze Horseman which is one of my all time favorite books. Beautifully written and a moving story. Think Outlander set in WWII Russia.
#20Series20Days @Andrew65
You are going to be on a deserted Island for the rest of your life. Name 1 big incredible book that‘s going with you (and tag it)
Mine is Bronze Horseman, by Paullina Simons 😍
1. I get book hangovers a lot. Recently, Hunger Games (movies this time) and The Bronze Horseman. It usually lasts a couple of weeks.
2. Tie between Black Jack Randall and President Snow.
3. I love series. I like stand alones.
Thanks for the tags @wanderinglynn and @AsYouWish
@MoonWitch94 #ThoughtfulThursday
#recsforbecks @LiteraryinLititz @TheArtsierTheBeckster I recommend this to everyone because of the feisty young woman who falls in love during the siege of Stalingrad. The epitome of storytelling.
Myself and my friends all passed this one around and we‘re completely obsessed. Loved the Russian setting - the sisters with the same love. It was epic and beautiful. I went on to read the sequel, but never continued to the third. I wasn‘t in the mood for more drama when my beloved characters were finally happy. 🤣 2/3 ain‘t bad.
I think this is going to be in my top five, I'm basically done the book. The waves of emotion are overpowering. This story takes place during World War Two, 1841. A young girl, Tatiana, and her family are plunged into unbearable hardships. Death, love and history. I usually don't read romance, I like horror and action, but yet this book has made it past top 20 all the way to top five. I would absolutely suggest this book to anyone who likes love.
This week‘s #ManicMonday on Tuesday. 😬

📖 Mystery but it depends on the book. For example I loved both The Bronze Horseman and Outlander which are both romance stories at their core.
☕ I like both but I love coffee. So I guess you could say my answer is neither.

@TheSpineView #Two4Tuesday
1. I hated that Alexander lied to Tatiana to save her life. I hated the whole ending. I loved those two so much.
2. There were many times I wanted to throw the next two in the series - Tatiana and Alexander and The Summer Garden. They just could not get a break.

I am not normaly a romance reader bit this one is that and so much more. The backdrop for the story and all the trials that the two go through. The purpose was outstanding and the plot eas perfectly executed. This is one of my all time favorite books.
@Alora #LitsyLearn
1. I wrote a play that was brought to life on stage.
2. My aunt works at rehab centers to meet wealthy men to marry. She's on her 7th marriage. We're not proud of her.
3. I've met Jimmy Stewart in real life.
Favorite book from 2019 is A Gentleman In Moscow.
I would love to meet Alexander and Tatiana from the tagged book during their happy times.
@Chrissyreadit @megnews @Laughterhp do you want to play?

#CharismaticCharacter
Alexander in Paullina Simons's The Bronze Horseman is the type of character I would love to meet. Dependable and loyal are just two of his charming charastics that draw you to him.
The greatest - Paullina Simons!
This story has killed me (in a good way!) I was so absorbed in the love story of Alexander and Tatiana that every moment I wasn‘t reading, I was thinking about it and talking to anyone who would listen. I can‘t wait to go onto the second novel now. 😍
"When you die, you‘ll be wearing your white dress with red roses, and your hair will be long and falling around your shoulders. When they shoot you, up on your damn roof or walking alone on the street, your blood will look like another red rose on your dress, and no one will notice, not even you when you bleed out for Mother Russia."
I cannot stop reading this book! It is just as good as The Nightingale. I didn‘t realise how much I loved historical fiction until I read 6 of them this year 😍

I loved this. I love long books, historical fiction- especially the kind that I end up looking up for more info, love stories, war stories... For me, there wasn't a boring part in the book. This even had a surprising amount of intense romance. 😳 I get to stay in this alternate reality for a little while longer. I'm starting the 2nd book in the series immediately. I love to read a series when all the books are already released!
I'm so behind on book posts. 😐 Currently reading this and loving it... I'm not even half way through and I stopped at the book store and bought the next 2 in the series. 🤷🏻♀️
This book is such a wonderful love story. The love between Alexander and Tatiana was absolutely marvelous. There were a few spots in this book that were slow, redundant, or unnecessary. This book is around 800 pages, and some of those pages just kept exploring old topics that were already dealt with. Maybe I'll read the next one, who knows. But for now, the love between Alexander and Tatiana makes my heart sing.
#thebronzehorseman #paullinasimons
I loved the Bronze Horseman it had so much feeling and emotion in this book. The relationships between all of the characters grip you from chapter one. Love and war are always two good combinations.
1. Fantasy
2. Maya Angelou
3.an ember in the ashes
4. I can't really think of one. I'm less interested in nonfiction but I still pick it up from time to time
5. Done

🎵 The Power of Love
Don't need money, don't need fame
Don't need no credit card to ride this train
It's strong and it's sudden and it's cruel sometimes
But it might just save your life
That's the power of love
#frideas @SailorMoon
1. The Bronze Horseman
2. 2/15 too much pressure
3. Jeremy
4. Happy
5. It's a tie between Alexander and Edward
#frideas @SailorMoon
1. Pretty Woman
2. The English Patient
3. The Host. Loved the book but the movie just could not cut it.
4. Actor = Robert Redford; Actress = Julia Roberts
5. The Bronze Horseman
I wanted to like this book. The storyline is wonderful. The circumstances surrounding the family and what they've endured is so good. The romance is complete rubbish. I was so mad about this yesterday I was wishing Tatiana was a real person so I could punch her. I am finally willing to set the book down and move on. My life doesn't need to be worse for reading this story.
I quit @ page 460. So much time wasted.
