Loved this story of 2 friends - for the characters rather than the politics.
Magical and beautifully descriptive. This was a re-read for me and I enjoyed every minute
Historical novel of 2 unwed black mothers and adoption in 1950s America. Sensitively written
2 timelines of Egyptian artifacts and the meaning of family
Excellent prequel to "We were liars" but a good warning to read it after that book. Another surprising storyline and wonderful descriptive writing.
Beautifully written book about a young black woman’s life surviving slavery and protecting the people she loved with courage.
YA read - boy and girl meet for a day. Beautiful characters and enjoyed the different voices. Great ending
Prequel to the Chocolat series this was a wonderful story about Vianne’s past and her discovery of chocolate making. Magical and satisfying
A short and delightful classic. I read this several years ago and was so glad I picked it up again. Wonderful for Intermediate age students and adults too. It’s full of magic and hope and joy.
YA fiction at its best. Beautiful prose and didn’t-want-to-stop-reading plot
Relationships of our youth and the stories we tell. I love her writing style
Lovely easy read about friendship and family. Even had Christmas scenes
Mystery of 3 vanishing lighthouse keepers inspired by real events. The story is told with flashbacks to the past event and 20 years later. Love how both storylines evolve revealing different things about the characters and their relationships
