The Girls of Good Fortune

By the author of SOLD ON A MONDAY, which was my all time favorite by this author. This one pulls you right in and keeps you wanting more.

You meet Celia in prison at the beginning of this story. Set in the late 1800's and told from before Celia's imprisonment and after. You get to know her and how she became a prisoner.

While I appreciated the attempt to spotlight a critical historical period, I found this story less compelling than Kristina McMorris's earlier works. Still, readers who enjoy adventure-driven historical fiction might find it engaging.

Excellent storyline and research.

This is another Kristina McMorris gem that you won‘t be able to put down, and you will feel for every heartache Celia endures.

Don‘t miss this one even though it is a bit of heavy reading and at times intense, but an excellent historical fiction read that will keep you glued to the pages. 5/5

I enjoyed this ARC historical fiction book immensely.It was well researched and written,gut wrenching at times and definitely kept you on the edge of your seat. I don‘t want to give away spoilers about the book, so on a high level, the main character Celia who is biracial Chinese is captured and taken into captivity in the ancient Chinese tunnels. The book tells of her time in the tunnels spent in captivity and beyond.

5/20
