3.5⭐️ it was okay. #2025 #bookreview #christianfiction #historicalromance #historicalfiction
pickThis was more of a mystery/suspense than it was a thriller. It is a very slow burn. I liked the way the author left little puzzle pieces for you to try to piece together before the main character. I didn't trust anyone and suspected everyone. I think the writing was so well done, I felt like anyone could have actually been the who did it, and it would have made sense. Beautiful writing, very atmospheric, but a little too slow. 4.5/5
One of my favorite authors! 🌊 🏖️

so-soThe 5th book I have read by Rash and my least favorite. A marriage of two horrible people intent on making great profit through logging and having no problem racking up a large body count in the process. When Serena realizes that she will never have a child she decides to have the one he fathered before meeting her killed. This could have been a more intense read but I felt removed from it all, never getting beneath the surface of the characters.
Yet another aspirational library. That little spiral staircase (which also leads to a hidden hallway to the guest rooms). I have mixed feelings about the Gilded Age (and decidedly negative feelings about its current reboot), but they had awesome private libraries---and views.
