Thank you, my friends: 51,000 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reviews on Goodreads . Is it time to discover (or rediscover) the novel about a home birth, a midwife on trial, and a young girl coming of age in Vermont that first introduced my work to so many of you? @DoubledayBooks
pickThis was a soft pick for this one which I read as part of the #ShelfSweeper Readathon #4Elizabeth. @Tove_Reads Book 2 from my shelf finished.
An interesting story finding out all about the secret‘s o& a pilot who was killed in an explosion in the air. As you find out more you get more and more annoyed by him, and what you find out. Some interesting twists along the way. Not sure what I make of the ending of the epilogue.
The tagged book is my second book read for the #ShelfSweeper Readathon @Tove_Reads #4Elizabeth
This book has been sitting on my shelf for more than 10 years. It tells the story of a wife who is awoken in the middle of the night to be told her pilot husband has been killed in an aeroplane accident, and goes on to tell his back story with no doubt some surprises along the way.
Continuing the countdown of my books, from 1st to 25th, THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS. Today it‘s my 5th novel, a 1997 story about a midwife on trial for manslaughter -- and the novel that would become my second movie (starring Sissy Spacek and Alison Pill), an Oprah's Book Club selection, and a #1 New York Times bestseller.
After two years of doing this I think I still have enough unread books to continue! So I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

pickI had this on my shelves for at least 11 years and never noticed the Ophrah's Book Club bubble. I'm not sorry I finally read it but the blurb on the back uses words like "sweet" and "tender" and for me it was brutal! Women trapped in awful marriages with no love. I wonder what I would have made of this if I read it long before I left my own marriage. It was another book from the 90s where the 10/11-year-old acts very much more grown up ⬇️
This was a book club pick. A very fast paced book but predictable. There was a movie made on this that I need to watch. Kathryn‘s says good bye to her pilot husband Jack not knowing it would be the last time she would see him. His plane goes down and an investigation starts to see if terrorists are involved #winterreading #library #familydrama
