@TheAromaofBooks, here's my #bookspin and #doublespin - it's worked quite nicely with one fiction and one nonfiction.

Today‘s Prompt: YELLOW COLOR
HISTORICAL FICTION
Poignant, heartbreaking, and unfortunately true.
THE WEDDING GIFT is beautiful in the sense of how the story is told in the author's marvelous prose and flowing style, but ugly in the harshness, cruelty, and reality of the events.

pickI was expecting this novel would be like BlueBird, Bluebird duology but it was my fault as a reader nothing related with the author☺️The novel is set in a plantation that has been owned by different generations of white people. Now is operating as a tourist attraction and some employees are descendants from families that were slaves. But part of those lands should be inherited by those descendants⬇️
pickFive star writing, five star characterisation, four star plot. This book is crime genre, but the writing is so good that I feel a lot of lit fic fans would also enjoy. I had to read it in chunks because I felt like I was skin grafted to the character and my fear for her would overwhelm me. But at the same time I had to keep going back to it. A slow burn so maybe not for people who like a lot of pace. Everyone else needs to try this book.
pickThis one will be in the mail tomorrow @Kappadeemom
@suvata @BeckyWithTheGoodBooks I‘ve had a pretty hectic and bad last few months. There was a lot of maintenance on my complex and then I had a break up with my boyfriend of over five years and that‘s been a struggle. Bit of a repeat from my last post but just wanted to let you guys know too and that it‘s on it‘s way tomorrow. I‘m really sorry this happened. I‘m not normally like this.

Caren Gray manages Belle Vie, a sprawling antebellum plantation that sits between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, where the past and the present coexist uneasily.
pickA mystery with heft, the antebellum plantation setting invoked feelings of both wonder and discomfort as the line between preserving history and the whitewashing of that history blurred. As the novel unfolded, the plantation itself became a character rich with complexity and long held secrets. Locke cleverly creates an opportunity here to explore our dark roots and brings together the past and present in an uncomfortable, but necessary, way.4⭐️
