Hi - I'm actually a little confused by the opening of Glory Over Everything. Probably just me. :)

It is a bit misleading.
DeleteThe book goes back and forth in time.
Thanks for stopping, Diane.
I like the beginning of "Glory" - will have to have to read the first book - The Kitchen House first though. I will have to check out The Passenger too...here's my Friday meme
ReplyDeleteThe first book will help with background, but not necessary.
DeleteThanks for stopping, Maria.
Aww the BB is so sad! It breaks my heart just a little, you know? I'm thinking she must be terminally ill. I hope you enjoy the read x
ReplyDeleteNothing like that, Amy.
DeleteThanks for stopping.
I am really interested in the first book because of the cover and the opening line. Also, I finished The Little Paris Bookshop finally. I loved parts of it, especially the bits about the importance of books. Thanks for the recommendaiton.
ReplyDeleteI think I have The Little Paris Bookshop. Wonderful to know it is good.
