Hands down one of the best I've read in a while! What an amazing journey! I hate it had to end, but it was a beautifully written book complete with all the things that make a book worth the effort. Can't recommend highly enough!

This was a solid ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2 stars read. Plenty of family drama, suspense, dash of romance and historical events to pull you into the story.
Brooklyn 1901 - After May‘s mother dies she learns that she has a previously unheard of aunt in San Francisco. If you are looking for a book about family secrets, greed, jealousy, and all those fun things, this is your book. The writing was nothing less than superb. In fact, this book contains the most vivid depiction of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake that I‘ve ever read. It made me truly feel what it would be like to have been there. 5-stars.
In a less generous mood I would say this is just so-so. The story is too out there and at times the main gets on your nerves. Goldie is more interesting and I would have liked to see this from her point of view instead. But it was actually kinda fun to read. It‘s for when you want to chill but want something above regency romance and reality tv.

I completely forgot to check the kindle first reads books for this month! November just seemed to fly by. I decided on this novel of dark family secrets and a young woman‘s rise and revenge set against the backdrop of the devastating 1906 San Francisco earthquake.
My #kindlefirstread for December!
