I started this on audio this morning the story seems interesting. Not sure about the narrator. We‘ll see if I‘ll continue.

😮 #JaneAdjacent BookClub is down to 2 books! Never fear #PemberLittens I have a plan. Working out few things and then will let you know.
Searching for Mr Tilney by Jane Odiwe
Is November's Novel. (Yes that's a nod to Northanger Abbey.) I'm excited because I adore Henry Tilney.
Read at your own pace. Discussion Post will be up November 30th. And as always let me know if you want to be tagged or removed from tag. #12monthsofjane
My next 4 books for #52bookclub24 ; another great reading month.
Két feleség (Two Wives, not in the Litsy database) included two thought-provoking novellas about love, desire, and the ghosts of the dead haunting living couples. My first book from this author (Sándor Bródy) but definitely not the last.

pickFound this book interesting and entertaining! The characters were fun, the story was intriguing and it was an easy read. The only issue I had was the ending. It felt rushed and incomplete. And why did Alice never see her beau again?! I wanted a happy ending for them. But the dynamics of Alice being placed in a power position in The Mint was really fascinating and not something that you would expect in that time frame. Overall, loved it!
pickWas a entertaining read in a great era. Alice turned out to be everything I was hoping for her to be. 🖤Ruthless. Oceans 13 meet Peaky Blinders . The acknowledgements mention the inspo. It had all the right ingredients to be a five star novel. However, writing /pacing needed a bit more cohesiveness, sometimes actions and scenes feel uncompleted like there is gaps in between the actions that characters are doing so it feels rushed or empty.
pickI loved this one! And this cover is gorgeous!

pickThis book is a sequel to “The Berlin Girl“, but could easily be read as a stand alone. It is set in Hamburg, Germany in 1946 and follows Georgie, a journalist, as she gathers info to write about the British attempts to help the citizens. While it paints a grim picture of the devastation of the war and deprivations of the people there, it also shows the their resilience. Georgie also ends up helping catch a serial killer. I enjoyed it. 4/5!
I‘ve gotten behind on posting my books on here. I‘ve been traveling. So the next few posts are a dump of the rest of September books. First I started with this Bletchley series. I really love reading about the women who worked at Bletchley.
11/12
Katrine finally learns what her mother‘s life was like during WWII during her time as a nurse in one of the many Lebensborn Program facilities.
A heartbreaking but enlightening read where secrets were kept for years and where the reader can‘t believe it happened.
A marvelous debut - wonderful research, wonderful, pull-you-in writing, and tender moments despite what was going on. 5/5
