pick4.5⭐️ I know that this book is considered to be quite divisive and readers really like it or really don‘t like it, but I really like it. There were lots of things that I liked about and it didn‘t hurt that I learned something about Canadian history that I didn‘t know about until I read this book. #2025 #bookclub #basedonatruestory #historicalfiction

A retell of Medea and Jason's stories.
I like Natalie Haynes, and her story style that puts women in Greek myth back to the frontline. This is not my favourite book but I liked the first 2/3, the story was rushed through in the last 1/3. Throughout there were many interesting details so I will get my own copy.

pickI‘m not a fan of historical fiction generally, but this book is excellent! I was hooked from the start and enthralled all the way to the end. It‘s an intimate look at the state of being female in the 1700‘s in America. Powerful and well written.
@dabbe Thank you so much for the fun gifts to celebrate the completion of the #ShardlakeBR. I loved the books and the discussion with the group!
panLoved the idea, but not the execution. Barely any of the book club, barely any actual love for books. The love triangle didn‘t work for me, and the story never lived up to the potential of its premise. Wish I‘d DNF‘d. ⭐️
