Book of the Month: THE HIDING PLACE

If there is ever a book that surprised me, it was this one. 
 It left me feeling ....  GRATEFUL!



This is the perfect book to read for the month of November.  I was hesitant to read it at first.  Not ready to dive into the harshness of WWII.  But I was so surprised!  The first half of the book took me by pleasant surprise ....and the ending left me feeling....grateful!

Book of the Month - A LADY IN DISGUISE

 by Sandra Byrd

I am excited to review October's book!  You will love it!  It's perfect for the month of spooks - as it is packed with mystery from beginning to end.  The suspense kept me turning the pages and I could not put it down.  Thus it was a quick but engaging read!

I loved the suspense, the intrigue and danger that were laced tightly into this story.  Sandra Byrd did a fabulous job.  Gillian is a strong heroin that whose character builds and reveals itself throughout the trouble she finds herself mixed in.  I love her straight forward, honest and brave way of dealing with what life has dumped into her lap.  

Finally, I think what sealed the deal was the great historical fiction that runs throughout the story.  Oh, and that the dashing Viscount Thomas Lockwood did not ride in and take over, but was a mysterious figure that kept you guessing as to what was going to really happen in the end!  Will he come in and save the day and take away all her troubles?  Or will Gillian stay true to her character and solve her father's mystery?  Enjoy:)
