A haunting and powerful story of female friendships and secrets in a Washington, D.C. boardinghouse during the McCarthy era. Washington, D.C., 1950. Everyone keeps to themselves at Briarwood House, a down-at-the-heels all-female boardinghouse in the heart of the nation‘s capital, where secrets hide behind white picket fences.

What better way to spend a rainy day than book shopping! My local bookstore had a buy 10 get 10 sale, so between my daughter and myself, we met the 20 book goal!

This is April 2022‘s best book. This book is based on a true story. Mila Pavlichenko was a librarian and a history student. During World War II she became the deadliest female sniper during Hitler's invasion of Ukraine and killed over 300 Nazis and was known as Lady Death. She becomes a national heroine and is sent to Washington D.C. on a tour to meet First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt.

New short story coming soon! 💕

Book is about 3 women (Osla, Mab & Beth) who were codebreakers at Bletchley Park during WWII. Kate Quinn did an excellent job of detailed research. Page-turner with great pacing, interesting dialogue & lots of twists & turns. I have read Quinn's Alice Network but need to read The Huntress. Love how Quinn wove the story of Osla who was Prince Phillip's real-life girlfriend into the book. If you love Historical Fiction, you will love this one!

Finished Auntie Poldi last night before crashing - it was cute, but like, my mom is almost 60 and happens to be super-cool...and none of the 60 year-olds I know are nearly as old-seeming as Auntie Poldi seems. She reads WAY older, so that bugged me, acting like 60 is sooooo old and eccentric - but now on to “The Huntress!” I‘ve heard great things about Kate Quinn, so! #thehuntress #katequinn
