Beautiful Ugly

This was a very entertaining book! Alice Feeney’s books always keep me guessing and have twists I can never truly guess at accurately. I was a little confused with how the stories came together at the end, however.

I loved this book. It was like a walk down memory lane as he describes the roles he did and his journey through Hollywood.

book cover


Interesting multigenerational historical fiction inspired by a community of the formerly-enslaved, situated in the mountains of Western NC/SC. Nikki (a DC real estate agent) goes to visit her grandmother, Mother Rita, hoping to ease the estrangement between mother and daughter. But instead Rita tells her a story of the land—how her great-great-great grandmother Luella was the queen of a kingdom on the very land Rita is fighting to keep. Touching and interesting, it's a tale of perseverance and hope.

I really enjoyed this one. It was interesting to read about a bookseller who has a rare book collection. I liked both of the main characters and I am going to read the next two books in the series.

All That Life Can Afford
by Emily Everett

book cover


Entertaining book about an American woman working on her postgrad lit degree in London. Struggling to pay her bills, and tutoring wealthy kids as a side job, she is swept into the world of the ultra-wealthy. It's a pretty nice place, at least materially, and she begins to do more and more things to stay there--until there's a reckoning. More than just fluff, there's depth to the characters and plenty of Austen references.

A charming premise that delivers a quietly satisfying read. The characterizations are tender, and the heart of the book, rather than plot.

Jane Eyre

book cover


Once I entered the world of Jane Eyre, I was hooked. I can see why there is longstanding appeal of this romantic novel by Charlotte Bronte. The story of an orphan who survived adversity and emerged heroically never gets old. The somewhat antiquated style of writing was charming and easy to follow. The addition of lines of French monologue in spots only added to the allure of this book. There were copious notes in the back of the book that explained expressions used or elements of history with which the reader may not have been familiar. Though its length of 500+ pages may have seemed daunting, the pages flew by, enveloped by the love story of Jane and Mr. Rochester. Highly recommend.
