Welcome to Litsy!

I always like novels with strong women characters. I also learned about Tutankhamun‘s Tomb. Thanks @Birdsong28 for turning me onto a new author.

Just found this author and now I have all of her other books to read. Historical fiction based on the lives of the 3 people who first entered King Tuts tomb. That curse is for real. 😳. Good historical background at the end. Stroke recovery with Eve, one of the three that took antiquities from the tomb.

Very good. Full of historical details and facts. Even though the time jumps were a bit disjointed at first I soon got used to it. Another great book by Gill Paul.

We can all relate to this. 😂😂😂😂📚📖

I know this one isn‘t timely, but I just decided I‘m going to try to do monthly wrap-ups.
May was a great reading month for me!

My first Gill Paul! The story of Lady Evelyn Herbert, the daughter of the Earl of Canarvon who was involved in the discovery of King Tut‘s tomb. It goes back and forth between the 1920s and 1970s, with a bit of a mystery thrown in. Very well done historical fiction. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Starting this one in my new bedroom reading nook.

I only read a couple books, but this one about the opening of Tutankhamun's tomb was very interesting. And I've read a couple more by this author that I have liked

This is a new author to me. An interesting story about Lady Evelyn Herbert, the woman who was first to step into Tutankhamun's tomb. Her father was the major investor in Howard Carter's quest to find the tomb, and she was invited by Carter to enter first, even before the discovery was announced. The story starts when she was in her 70s and ⬇️

Stopped at a favourite café to study - I‘m sneaking in a chapter or two of my current read. A soon to be published historical fiction novel, which follows the story of Lady Evelyn Herbert (daughter of the Earl of Carnarvon), the woman who took the very first step into the tomb of Tutankhamen, who lived in the real Downton Abbey, Highclere Castle & supposedly experienced long after effects of the curse of the pharaohs. It‘s a thrilling read so far!
