This #chunkstermini has been hanging out on my shelves since it came out in the mid 1980s. It shows its age a bit, and by the last section the twists became ridiculous. But it was a fun soap opera of a book and I‘m glad I read it. My favorite character was the Duchess, and this is my image of her, except the facial expression isn‘t quite right. #bookspin for January and 1st #24in2024. @TheAromaofBooks @Jas16 @Amiable

Jas16 Glad it ended up being worth the wait! 13mo

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 12mo

Amiable I love that you've checked it off your list after all these years! Good job! 12mo

I had a hard time with #historicalfiction for #reindeerreads because probably about 75% of the books I own fall in the category. So here is a picture of my entire #tbr shelves.

TrishB 👍🏻 7y

Gissy So you perfectly know what that phrase means: so many books so little time but I bet that you continue buying books 😉 7y

tracy.anne8 @Gissy Always! I know that saying much too well. 🤷‍♀️ 7y

Reagan Broken Monsters! So bizarre, so excellent. 8y

Hooked_on_books Nice! Presumably you get even more when he comes because you have help carrying them, right? 😉 8y

SaraFair Have heard so many good things about this book and love the Bible verse. 8y

Karli @Hooked_on_books - he would help carry, but he doesn't understand that I'd rather have books than money. (Or perhaps he understands that entirely too well?) 8y

History. Romance. Characters with depth. If you love stories like Gone with the Wind you'll also love Karleen Koen's historical novels. I've read this book in my teens, 20s, 30s, and 40s. It gets richer with time as my own life experience deepens. One of my all time favorites!
