This week's book beginnings comes from MIST OF MIDNIGHT by Sandra Byrd.
"Dusk had begun to smother daylight as we walked down the cool street, peering at the numbers above the doorways, one after the other, skirts gathered in hand to keep them from grazing the occasional piles of wet mud and steamy horse muck."
It isn't bad. Nothing earth shattering yet. :) Set in London.

My review won't be posted until March 26. I hope you stop back.

This book is one I finished last week and used as my book beginnings. Wanted to share again this week.
WHISPER HOLLOW by Chris Cander.
"Myrthen's
mother and father had carried more hopes than means with them when they
crossed the Atlantic Ocean in the middle of January 1910. Rachel Engel
was just sixteen when she left her home and family in Saxony, Germany,
brave and willing and fiercely in love with Otto Bergmann, but
nonetheless glancing over her shoulder all the way to the southern short
of the river Elbe, the gateway to the world."
WHISPER HOLLOW was VERY good. Historical fiction and women's fiction combined with strong female characters.
My review won't be posted until March 26. I hope you stop back.
Love the cover.
