I finished reading this book already. A very emotional read with wonderful characters.

Love her books....looking forward to reading this one - I actually started it.
Happy Monday!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping, and enjoy your reading week.
I'm reading The Mother's Promise now :) The author tackles some emotional subjects in her books, doesn't she? I read her The Things We Keep several weeks ago and loved it.
ReplyDeleteYes...very emotional subjects. A bit depressing, but a good book.
DeleteThanks for stopping, Mary.
Wow, you got to those fast!
ReplyDeleteLOL...I know.
DeleteI actually was caught up with all my books for review so it was perfect timing.
Thanks for stopping, Kathy.
They sound good.
ReplyDeleteI am happy.
DeleteThanks for stopping, Mary Ann.
Reading Windy City Blues too. I lived many years in Chicago and even visited a few blues clubs!
ReplyDeleteFun on visiting some of the blues clubs.
DeleteThanks for stopping, Harvee Lau.
Hi Elizabeth,
ReplyDeleteBoth new to me authors as regards reading, although I have heard of Sally Hepworth before. This one is definitely heading for my list and you obviously enjoyed it to have finished reading so quickly!
The Renee Rosen isn't really 'doing it' for me, I'm afraid, as I don't know enough about the music to enjoy the context of the storyline. I do find the racial and social tensions intriguing though.
Enjoy your reading week and thanks for sharing :)
Yvonne
I wish I knew more about music too, but that isn't taking away from the story.
DeleteThere is enough love and other interesting things happening to make a great story line.
Thanks for stopping, Yvonne.
I've seen these around so they must be of interest. I like the covers. Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteI love covers too. :)
DeleteThanks for stopping, Martha.
Windy City Blues does look tempting. Glad you enjoyed the Hepworth book. Have a great week :)
ReplyDeleteMs. Hepworth's books are good.
DeleteWindy City Blues is enjoyable.
Thanks for stopping, Lucy.
A Mother's promise sounds really good. Looking forward to your review :)
ReplyDeleteIt was good, but heart wrenching.
DeleteThanks for stopping, Dragonfly Our Familiarium.
Those both sound good - and Windy City Blues is set in Chicago! :)
ReplyDeleteI am enjoying Windy City Blues.
DeleteThanks for stopping, Leslie.
Windy City Blues looks good. The other probably isn't for me - I tend to avoid "emotional" reads.
ReplyDeleteI just finished Windy City Blues...very good book as all of her books.
DeleteIt was set in Chicago and was about the start of Blues Music.
Thanks for stopping, Carol.
I've never read Renee Rosen but this books sounds interesting. I hope you had a great reading week and thank you for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteHer books are always so good.
DeleteThanks for stopping, Kay.
