The Moonlight Palace
The Moonlight Palace | Liz Rosenberg
4 posts | 6 read | 7 to read
Agnes Hussein, descendant of the last sultan of Singapore and the last surviving member of her immediate family, has grown up among her eccentric relatives in the crumbling Kampong Glam palace, a once-opulent relic given to her family in exchange for handing over Singapore to the British. Now Agnes is seventeen and her family has fallen into genteel poverty, surviving on her grandfather's pension and the meager income they receive from a varied cast of boarders. As outside forces conspire to steal the palace out from under them, Agnes struggles to save her family and finds bravery, love, and loyalty in the most unexpected places. The Moonlight Palace is a coming-of-age tale rich with historical detail and unforgettable characters set against the backdrop of dazzling 1920s Singapore.

I have lots of books with moon in the title but only three with moonlight. 🌙🌛🌕🌘🌜

Billypar This has nothing to do with moonlight but these are three very different examples of title to author font size ratios ☺ 4y

#JuneTunz #brokedownpalace All of these books from my 'have read' list feature old, crumbling, somewhat 'brokedown' castles or palaces in them--or as in The Night Sister, the Tower Motel that looks like a (creepy) castle. 🏰📚💜

DebinHawaii @ReachersCoffee I don't think so if you are talking about the 1983 film, it's based on another book with the same name by F. Paul Wilson. This book was published in 2006 & it was optioned several years ago but I don't think a movie got made. 👍 7y
ReachersCoffee Thanks for the info!! 7y

Starting second book on kindle . Hope this one is better than the last. I know I will not meet the #24in48 challenge but maybe I'll at least make it to 12 hours. Unexpected yard work yesterday messed me up 😩
