Welcome to Litsy!

Sadly, this is a so-so when the first in the series was a 5-star read! I found myself skipping and skimming through this one since much of it was too predictable and filled with many boring details. 😱 I hope the 3rd one returns to the captivating and page-turning greatness I found in Songs of Love and War.

Probably won't finish it by January 1st, but that's okay.

This installment was just as delicious as the first - the excitement, horror, thrills, pit in my stomach, glee in my smile! I kept trying to predict what would happen next, and would you believe I kept being wrong?! I am anxious to read the next one to find out how it all ends!

This was a second in a series, which I did not realize when I took it out and started to read. But it was a very good story and missing book one still let me in at a very accessible spot.

Oh my goodness what a great second book of the trilogy!!! I think I enjoyed it better than the first. Ireland, London, Africa, America, I traveled all over the world. 💜💜💜

Black Friday reading! Loved the first book in the series.

Finished 'Apple Tree Yard' and loved it 😌 now starting this by one of my fave authors 💕

Awhile ago, I saw this book all over GR and IG with rave reviews. The reviews talked me into a book I was pretty sure wouldn't be my cup of tea. It reads like an Irish telenovela. Seriously. All the angst over love, unrequited love, adulterous love, etc. with some shady business dealings and half hearted revenge plots x2. Just not for me... especially with the ending lining up an equally eye roll worthy third book.

An excellent middle book in what is shaping into an epic trilogy! All of the characters that made their mark in book 1 came back to damage each other some more in their individual quests for happiness in book 2. We also get to meet some new characters that I'm very much looking forward to seeing develop in the final installment. Just wonderful historical fiction! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Having read secrets of the lighthouse, the French gardener. The house by the sea and others I know this will not disappoint xx

I find it so hard to resist sequels!

I haven't been to Ireland, but it's a dream of mine to go. So I always love when it's the setting for a book. This is apparently a trilogy and this is book two. It's my understanding you can read them as stand alones. Can anyone confirm this?

So excited to be reading and reviewing this one next month!! How gorgeous is this cover too?! Thank you @TLCBookTours and @WilliamMorrow for the ARC!!
