pickWill Lacey be able to find out the history of her grandmother Sophie‘s life?
We meet Sophie, Hanna, and their parents in 1938 as Hitler takes control of Austria.
We follow both sisters during the war and Lacey in 2021 as she tries to find out about her grandmother.
A lovely, enjoyable, heartfelt, well-researched read with a mystery to solve about Sophie and some surprises. 5/5

Can't We Be Friends by Denny S. Bryce and Eliza Knight was a great read! It's a deep dive into the unlikely friendship between two mega stars at the height of their popularity, Marilyn Monroe and Ella Fitzgerald. The research is phenomenal and the storytelling is compelling. I really enjoyed reading about Ella who I knew litte about. If you are a fan of either, you'll love this book.

🔟 Struggled to get through this as I felt it was quite slow and I wasn‘t really that bonded to any of the characters! I had visited the Titanic Museum in Pigeon Forge and had read about the Titanic Orphans there, an incredible story really but I felt it took a lonnnng time to get to it.
Beauties of all shapes and sizes. Pleasures to suit every taste. And as long as you keep your head down and your arse up, you've a roof over your head. Just remember to stay in Mrs Fiddes's good books. And she takes a daily note, I can tell you. Now come, let me pour you a whisky and I'll tell you a tale that's taller than these high tenements...
pickHF: December 7, 1941 Pearl Harbor. Frank and Stanley are fast friends with hopes and dreams - they are touring a battleship in the harbor when the world explodes, the day Japan 🇯🇵 bombed US waters. Thoughtful and multifaceted rendering of the story within a story.

pickAn interesting story, based on a true one, which for me always adds a bit to a book. Christian was too wild for the times she lived in and that caused her downfall.
I feel like the book could have used some editing ( the story took endless to pick up speed) and though I liked it, I wonder why it is on the #WomenPrize longlist.

Switching gears with my reading this week, going from Sci-Fi to Historical Fiction. I'm taking a dive into a friendship between Marilyn Monroe and Ella Fitzgerald. It's a fascinating peek into the lives of two magical women. I already love it!
