WWI France
Based on true events in the life of Julia Stimson. I enjoyed learning about this pioneering woman in the medical field. It was also interesting reading about the medical practices at the time.
Hopefully I can read in peace & quiet.
I made more progress in this book last night. I‘m not enjoying it that much. It seems to be focusing a lot on the war and I don‘t like that even though I know it‘s set during a war. The man and woman in this story just met on the battlefield. I don‘t see any chemistry between them but that could change. I‘m glad this isn‘t a WWII book though because I get tired of reading those. I want to read about different time periods besides WWII.
Here‘s how I did on the #awesomeapril readathon:
📚Met my goal of finishing Arrogant Playboy and finished reading the Arrogant trilogy
📚Read 1 book from my #bookspinbingo list from last month when the numbers were drawn
📚Started another book from my #bookspinbingo list. I knew I wasn‘t going to finish it on the last day of the readathon but I‘ve at least started it.
This was my first time participating.
I started this book during my walk at the dog park today. I‘m not invested in the story yet but then again, I only listened to the first 2 chapters. I‘m not sure if I‘m going to like it because some Goodreads reviews have said that it reads like a history textbook, has a lot of battle scenes and it doesn‘t focus on the romance as much but I‘m going to read this and see if I agree with the reviews.
Spied this spot earlier in the week and I‘ve been dreaming of reading here ever since…thinking today‘s the day!
I have two books on my TBR with “Glory” in the title. A Ballad of Love and Glory, and Morning Glory. 🙂
