The Guest Book. A fascinating family saga.

May 10, 2019 / beckmank / Leave a comment

5/5 Stairs. One of those books I just kept thinking about long after I put it down. I think this is going to be one of my favorites of 2019.

A Deceptive Devotion. “To survive, you must swim with the current.”

April 23, 2019 / beckmank / Leave a comment

5/5 Stairs. If you love any of the following - strong female leads, historical mysteries, Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs - don't miss this book (or this series). The characters, setting, and stories combine for a wonderful mystery.
