Where We Belong
Where We Belong | Lynn Austin
12 posts | 7 read
The Adventure of a Lifetime for Two Indomitable Socialite Sisters In the city of Chicago in 1892, the rules for Victorian women are strict, their roles limited. But sisters Rebecca and Flora Hawes are not typical Victorian ladies. Their love of adventure and their desire to use their God-given talents has brought them to the Sinai Desert--and into a sandstorm. Accompanied by Soren Petersen, their somber young butler, and Kate Rafferty, a street urchin who is learning to be their ladies' maid, the two women are on a quest to find an important biblical manuscript. As the journey becomes more dangerous and uncertain, the four travelers sift through memories of their past, recalling the events that shaped them and the circumstances that brought them to this time and place.

I'm hanging out at the lab this morning for my three hour glucose tolerance test. Do you think I brought enough reading material? 😀 #ProudAbibliophobiaSufferer

rebeccarvincent I found having more time to read books one of the wonderfully unexpected perks of having so many doctor appointments 😁👍 7y
smilingshelves @rebeccarvincent Yup! As awful as this test is, I've been looking forward to it all week for the extra reading time! 7y
AmberWB I remember having to do the same thing! 7y

TheHeartlandBookFairy Love Lynn Austin Books! 7y
TheHeartlandBookFairy @smilingshelves , have you read waves Of b Mercy? Excellent!!! And, she is working on a sequel to that one 😊 7y
smilingshelves @TheHeartlandBookFairy I haven't yet, but it's on my TBR. How can I pass up one set in my home state? ☺ 7y
TheHeartlandBookFairy @smilingshelve , exactly!!! I actually live right in Holland where the book is set and Lynn lives around the corner from me which I did not realize when I first started reading her books 😊 It was such a pleasure to read about many of the locations that I have been too and I'm very familiar with! You'll love the book 😁 7y
smilingshelves @TheHeartlandBookFairy Lynn lives in Michigan? I didn't know that! How fun! I'm over on the other side of the state, in the Thumb area. I'll have to take a trip over to Holland to explore the sights after I read Waves of Mercy. ☺ 7y
TheHeartlandBookFairy @smilingshelves , yes! I have listened to her give author talks at our local library in Holland twice now and she's a fabulous speaker as well as writer! I knew she was from West Michigan but I didn't realize she lives right around the corner from me until I won a book from her and she mailed it to me LOL 😂. If you do end up coming this way, let me know! I'd be happy to be a tour guide for you if it worked out 😊 7y
smilingshelves @TheHeartlandBookFairy That is awesome that she lives right around the corner from you! Thanks for the offer to be a tour guide. My cousin lives over in that area as well, so hopefully I can work something out! 😊 7y

Take an adventure with two sisters who grew up in the Victorian age but threw off society‘s expectations to follow their own dreams of education, travel and justice. Austin masterfully weaves history and fiction to tell a grand story. The heroines face danger, disapproval and the question, “What is my purpose?”

Lizzybennetgirl Rebecca and Flora definitely weren‘t typical heroines! I love how Rebecca especially wasn‘t afraid to dig into science, finances, and politics to answer the tough questions. 6y
