@Bookwormjillk thanks for the invite @Eggs 1) Sharon Garlough Brown, Jocelyn Green, Kate Quinn. 2) The Mark of the King by Jocelyn Green ~ historical fiction gets me every time 3) not a fan of series but found the Family Honor Series in a LFL by Karen Ball
pickI really enjoyed how Green weaves aspect of history into a fictional world. Great read.
I heard this quote last night as I listened on my way to work. I read The Mark of the King last year and I must say that the audiobook is awesome. I struggle reading the French words but the narrator does an excellent job.
Just started this audiobook tonight ~ I actually want to spend more time in the car listening to it.
pickI enjoyed this book based on the forced settlement if Louisiana.

This book left me speechless! I have read a lot of historical fiction works, but nothing has compared to this roller coaster of a read. This story of colonial New Orleans will pull you in from the first page! I did not know what to expect, but it was not what the many twists and turns that this book takes. The author does an amazing job at portraying the brutality that many colonists faced, when moving to America.
When my husband is away in RVA, I bust out the recipes I know he won't eat (chicken stroganoff)- plus I get to read at dinner!!! #dinnerandabook #readandeat
pickInteresting! Historical fiction that starts in France and ends in the fledgling French colony of Louisiana USA.
