Although the character development was somewhat lacking, the story's premise and excellent narration easily drew me in. You could probably find flaws if you looked hard enough, particularly the similarity to another popular book, but I enjoyed it overall.
🎙️The narration by Cassandra Campbell and Karissa Vacker was phenomenal.
pickI don‘t usually like books about the Tudors or books that say they‘re witty. But hey-ho I loved this 🤷♀️ Not a series historical novel (some modern language and a lot of licence with the storytelling). But a good story, a great MC and it was very funny.
so-soA somewhat flawed historical novel that presents us with the story of John Collins, who is manipulated into standing at the front of a failed Yorkist rebellion against Henry VII. The story is intriguing, and the characters well drawn, but the language put into their mouths is strange. In the first 1/3 of the book, it is too modern. In the remaining pages, it‘s like someone gave Harkin a glossary, and she uses it very heavily.
pickI loved this book so much… it was so well written and super entertaining! I haven‘t read a historical fiction book that I loved this much in a long time!!! Highly, highly recommend!!
Watching this with MisterInBlue tonight. I watched this obsessively when it came out. I was 12. It's not a surprise I turned out the way I did. 😅
The haiku is comprised of lines from different songs in the movie.

pickI loved this historical fiction novel in verse, set to the backdrop of classical piano music. This is the story of Helena, her family, and her new romantic interest Lucas in the weeks and months proceeding the fall of the Berlin Wall. It's weird calling something I remember watching on the news historical fiction.
