Happy #caturday! What are you reading today? :)

Book Review…Gilded Mountain by Kate Manning Gilded Mountain is set in Moonstone, Colorado, a mining town and is a story about Sylvie Pelletier as she recounts her life and the effects of effects of slavery on the Grady family and the work of Mary Harris "Mother" Jones and of the difficult lives of workers and their struggles against the owners of the mines. There were a few great characters in this book! Sylvie is the main character and when we start she is a young woman wanting to do what's right and follow her heart and by the end of the story she has grown into an adult who took charge of her life! Mary Harris Jones wasn't someone I was familiar with but she was another amazing woman! Not accepted as a journalist because she was a woman and she started her own paper. She was a lively character! This book is beautifully written, with rich details that pull you in and make the characters and their lives truly come to life! It's not based on actual events but it is still rich with history. As a reader you can't help but feel the emotions of the people. It's a great historical fiction story about family, justice and equality with some amazing characters and a little bit of romance! Thank you Scribner Books and Kate Manning for sharing this wonderful story with me! #GildedMountain #KateManning #ScribnerBooks #SimonandSchuster #historicalfiction #books #bookreview #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #reader #newbooks #bookrecommendatiom #booklover #booknerd #igbooks #igreads https://www.instagram.com/p/ChCQxm9st_9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My aesthetic board for 'The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane'!

I chose 'The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane' by Lisa See. I enjoy reading Lisa See's work, since she always describes the sacredness of female bonds so expertly!

TGIF! I am fully into the Christmas spirit and can’t wait to get my Christmas tree tomorrow. Let the decorating begin! . 🎄 . The final pick for #frc2018 with @booksparks was handpicked by @katherineheigl & @thoseheavenlydays THE POSSIBLE WORLD by Liese O’Halloran Schwarz is intense and full of detail. A must read for for any mystery or historical fiction fans! . 🎄 . Goodreads description: . It seems like just another night shift for Lucy, an overworked ER physician in Providence, Rhode Island, until six-year-old Ben is brought in as the sole survivor from a horrifying crime scene. He’s traumatized and wordless; everything he knows has been taken from him in an afternoon. It’s not clear what he saw, or what he remembers. Lucy, who’s grappling with a personal upheaval of her own, feels a profound, unexpected connection to the little boy. She wants to help him…but will recovering his memory heal him, or damage him further? Across town, Clare will soon be turning one hundred years old. She has long believed that the lifetime of secrets she’s been keeping don’t matter to anyone anymore, but a surprising encounter makes her realize that the time has come to tell her story. As Ben, Lucy, and Clare struggle to confront the events that shattered their lives, something stronger than fate is working to bring them together. An expertly stitched story that spans nearly a century—from the Great Depression through the Vietnam War era and into the present—The Possible World is a captivating novel about the complicated ways our pasts shape our identities, the power of maternal love, the loneliness born out of loss, and how timeless bonds can help us triumph over grief. . 🎄 . #thepossibleworld #booksparks #thoseheavenlydays #scribnerbooks #jennblogsbooks #bookchallenge #fallbookchallenge #bookpage #readersofinsta #flatlayforever #mybookfeatures #libraryofinstagram #bookfeaturepage #ilovebooks #booksbooksbooks #bookaesthetic #booktography #thebookstagram #booktoday #jomo https://www.instagram.com/p/BrHJZUhFaTt/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kleuhwn2ml0x
