In Amanda Skenandore's provocative and profoundly moving debut, set in the tragic intersection between white and Native American culture, a young girl learns about friendship, betrayal, and the sacrifices made in the name of belonging. ⬇️
If not because of #TBRtarot I would not have chanced upon this book or author. A well-written, delightful story of four girls who turned a run-down cottage into their summer play house. I enjoyed the nice humour, and the way the girls are portrayed..reminds us of the simple joys of growing up. Published in 1904, it‘s old fashioned but sweet.

This is one of my favorite time periods so it was interesting to see how this series handled it. It's full of information from the Harlem Renaissance to the great depression and more.
I enjoyed reading this book and series. I rated this book a 4 out of 5 stars.
Finishing up this collection. I really need to prioritize reading more short stories and collections.
Fourth in the Stella and Lyndy mystery series, this finds the newlyweds beginning their honeymoon at the Majestic Hotel in York. They investigate a murder in the hotel which the police originally label an accident. Who killed the owner of England‘s largest confectionery and stole a family recipe? Was it family, employees or someone else? Enjoyable addition to the series. 4.25/5⭐️
