Glad that I finally got around to trying this series. Delightful listen. Nice that I have several more to look forward to. If you like Maisie Dobbs &/or The Emmy Lake Chronicles (A.J. Pearce), I think you‘d enjoy Iris and Gwen.

Aims42 I love this series so much 😍 (but I really hate the title of this book lol It sounds so “fluffy”) I think it‘s one of the few series that get better and better with each new book 👍 1mo
Aimeesue I love this series! I agree with @Aims42 it just gets better with every book. And there‘s Sally ❤️ 1mo
Aims42 @Aimeesue YES! So much love for Sally! 1mo
jlhammar @Aims42 @Aimeesue That is great to hear. Now I‘m even more excited to continue! 1mo

When Franny Stands Up | Eden Robins

Here are my #ReadYourKindle books for February:

12 Selling Hope
14 Mrs. Narwhal‘s Diary
17 The Secret Keeper
18 When Franny Stands Up

I previously said I was going to read #12 first, but I‘ve decided to switch to #18 (the tagged book) instead, in an effort to kill two birds with one stone. 😄 #NetgalleyBacklog

3.5 ⭐️ a good story! After reading the author‘s note, I learned George Stinney was a real person which makes it sadder. I enjoyed this debut novel!

The only way to describe reading this book is to say I was completely swept away. An independent and fierce heroine during a time when women were recruited to join the war efforts of WWII and then told to go back to the kitchen once the war was over. Alix is everything I would‘ve hoped for myself had I been born back then and everything I hope for my own daughter even now. Book #4 in 2024

Allthebookclubs My entire review: The only way to describe reading this book is to say I was completely swept away. It features an independent and fierce heroine during a time when women were recruited to join the war efforts of WWII and then told to go back to the kitchen once the war was over. 2mo
Allthebookclubs Alix St. Pierre was orphaned young, raised in boarding school through charity, trust into the secret world of the American OSS, and then took over the fashion scene in France working with Christian Dior. Alix is everything I would‘ve hoped for myself had I been born back then and everything I hope for my own daughter even now. 2mo

The Silence of Ghosts: A Novel | Jonathan Aycliffe

Written in the classical gothic style, this is a tale of a man who has been badly injured in WW2. (Written in diary/letters). He ends up staying with his young deaf sister in an old house which no one will go near or talk about. They and the caregiver begin to have experiences. After suffering more tragedy they come to learn of the house‘s dark past. This book kind of reminded me of some of Lovecraft‘s stories.

No real standouts for March, but this was the Scarlett book most like Noel Streatfeild's children's books, so of course I enjoyed it.

Andrew65 Looks a good read. (edited) 3mo
