Welcome to Litsy!

Meh. Admittedly, this isn't my kind of historical fiction at all, but I had a hard time caring about any of the historical sections and the dialogue at times read like the characters were quoting from a history book. It was heavy-handed in many ways, and I enjoyed the author's note much more than the rest of the book. I suspect that Lisa Wingate isn't an author for me.

Finished this on the train back from a long weekend last week in Manchester Christmas 🎄 markets. disappointed with this one to be honest ; I adored outlander and ordered this from the library (thankfully didn‘t buy it ) after synop compared it to outlander. Dual time lines I love & usually I prefer the historical plotline but this never got going for me & I preferred the modern storyline.It was OK read & slightly dull for me

Finally got around to reading this Lisa Wingate from earlier this year, and as expected, I really enjoyed it! I did feel that some of the dialogue was a bit TOO expository, but overall I enjoyed this one ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Reading on my Kindle, just started but liking it so far.

Compelling, heartbreaking, and very impactful. I did not see that end coming! Betrayal, double crossing, and deep rooted mistrust. Such a fantastic book. Book #97 in 2024

Sometimes 451 characters isn't enough to gush over a book and the feeeelllllssss associated with that book and that's my problem here but I will say that Grann did an amazing job of balancing historical information and providing it such a written way that spoke of the Osage's civilization with respect to race, perspective, culture, and colonialism.

The sweetest little spirit I know has volunteered his services as reading buddy while I hunker down with MEAN SPIRIT. It‘s a fictionalized take on the events everyone now knows from KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON, written by a Chickasaw woman, and it‘s excellent so far. I hope I can scrounge lots of time with it tonight.
