pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If I ever took the time to make a list of authors who do not disappoint, Fiona Davis would be on that list. Her latest novel, set during the Red Scare of the 1950s. As always, she creates a world you feel you could walk right in to. In this book, she also crafts a complex female friendship that is one of the best I‘ve read. #fionadavis #thechelseagirls #historicalfiction #read #bookrecommendations #booknerds

When you have finished cooking over the fire, dinner is done, and you sit down to enjoy your book, and you find lines so completely fitting. #lifeisgood #whenbooksandlifecollide
pick*Trigger Warning* This book contains physical and sexual assault on females of all ages. Stella Fortuna, whose name literally means lucky star, has always unintentionally tempted fate and has the scars to prove it. The book is a slow winding account of her life and how little control she had over it due to having the misfortune of being born to an abusive father, as well as her immigrant experience turned American nightmare.
I have this for my Kobo so I can read at my leisure . No worry about getting back to the library in time.

• Page 208, little more than halfway through. This one is dragging a bit for me but it's still a pretty good story. It seems to pick up and slow down on the regular; I like the main character enough, so that's keeping me going for now •
