Welcome to Litsy!

Ugh, not only do I regret buying this book new, but also wasting my time reading it to nearly the end. I just couldn‘t manage the last few pages.

I will spare everyone the rant, other than to say it wasn‘t the big relationship twist that was the problem. 👎🏾👎🏾

A house & secrets? Yes please!

Family secrets being unravelled in a gothic manor setting? Sign me up 🙋‍♀️
I loved this novel with dual timelines merging together to reveal family secrets. Louisa as the main character is forging her own path away from her mother‘s influence & is forming a relationship with her grandfather who is living back at Larkswood after fleeing his demons years before.

I wasn't expecting much from this, however I do enjoy reading the occasional book from a different era so thought I'd give it a try and I'm grateful I did.

Great attention to detail and informative of WW2 era which I thoroughly enjoyed learning about. The run up to the war adds an edge of tension that I'm not sure would be there otherwise.

Captivating family intrigue with a few surprises thrown in.
