My Name Is Resolute | 
Finished my reread! It‘s a true joy to revisit a book I love and find it just as exciting and emotional as the first time I read it. Resolute is one of my top favorite female leads ever. This book spans her life, from a 10 yr wealthy child living on a Jamaican plantation in the 1700‘s to capture by pirates, to indentured servitude, to a Canadian orphanage, to her little home outside of Lexington and Concord. A very strong historical saga.
I decided on a whim yesterday to reread one of the best books I‘ve ever read (maybe THE best) for my first book of 2022. The main character, Resolute, is a force and her story is incredible. I‘ve thought about this book a million times since I last read it 5 years ago.
My house is quiet right now so I‘m getting some really good reading time.

When in the Atlantic and Other Oceans, the streets or waterways have no names.
pickThis book was everything I want in historical fiction! Resolute was an amazing character and I loved how this story stretched from her childhood to her as a great grandmother. It was a chunky book, but I could have read even more about her life - as a slave, a weaver, a rebel.
This novel opens with three kids and a bunch of slaves being kidnapped at one of the #PiratePorts in Jamaica. #WhatAWayToLive #PiratesLife
pickI finished this book + I'm so sad that it is over. I feel so many things about this story! I've never been so inside of a historical plot as with this one. It felt alive + breathing, and this character Resolute is one that I'll never forget. My new favorite female lead.
This is the story of a girl taken from her home + sold as a slave + eventually she helped shape the revolution that made the United States. Incredible story. I'm speechless.
I'm just over halfway thru this book but I think I may have found my new favorite female MC:
Resolute Catherine Eugenia Talbot is one of the strongest leads that I've ever read. I love her, I love her, I love her! She has been through some awful times, some crazy times, some good times, and she is still a lady and she is making her way. She is awesome.
I have held my breath for the entire first half of 600 pages. This book is GOOD READS.
Current situation ☕️
I took a short break from social media over the past few days. I have to do that from time to time or I get a little overwhelmed with it. (I'm NEVER overwhelmed with you, @Litsy friends!)
Anyone else ever feel this way?🙋🏻
Check out what I'm #currentlyreading 👆🏻👆🏻 👆🏻 IT IS SO INCREDIBLE. I'm trying to read it slowly so I can savor it, but really: I just want to devour it. And I'm so in love with this cover.
