This is a good one. My son can easily fill in the blank while reading this because it is repetitive.

This book is truly a masterpiece, depicting the tragedies of the Holocaust, and creating a powerful voice for the future.

I loved the author's previous book, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, so I was excited to read this one. That one blended a strain of fantasy into the present world, and this one did too. I don't want to give anything away, but it's the interconnected story of three women—Sabine, Charlotte, and Alice—over a period ranging from the 1500s to present day, in Europe and Boston. It was interesting and entertaining, but not as good as Addie LaRue, for me.

You will love this book if you like The Red Queen series and the Hunger Games. It is a great enemies to lovers novel, a wonderful adventure and a very addicting book.

I read this all by myself

An historical fiction based on a real person, a former friar in Germany during WWII who joins the resistance and along with his wife encourages the town people to to continue living their lives by supporting each other and especially the children. An uplifting story, beautifully descriptive and emotionally charged.

This book was very interesting. It held my interest the whole time. I’d rate it higher if it hadn’t been predictable. That said, I’d recommend this book. I learned a lot.

I was so excited to hear Ali released a fantasy-based romance, and it absolutely lived up to my expectations.

'Maybe in Another Life' was a compelling read but then held some aspects I disliked. I did fall in love with the characters, such as the main one, Hannah. I was glad to see how far she'd come in both lives. Her life story makes me feel a bit better. She changed from indecisive to quite decisive. Hannah transformed as a person and chose to follow a healing path. I was fond of how she learned to accept many things that came in her way. What I didn't like was how many times cinnamon rolls and high buns were mentioned. I also got bored of how tedious the story got. Oftentimes, it repeated what happened in that life to the other life. TJK incorporated lots of wisdom within Hannah, which I found nice. Overall, I'm satisfied the story ended happily, but it just wasn't one of my best reads.

This book was hard to connect to because the main character refers to everyone around her as a title (ex:the husband, the daughter) and refers to no one by name. She is stuck in a less than perfect marriage and is treated as an outcast for her profession as a funeral cryer, which to many makes her bad luck. As soon as she seems to making some changes for her happiness the story kind of abruptly ends. I really wanted more from the ending. One thing I did appreciate about this book was the glimpse into Chinese culture at the time.
