pickLove this series
pickAlmost the entire Irish village of Baltimore was taken captive by pirates in the early 1600s and sold as slaves in #Algeria. With little records about their lives as slaves, the author relies on a number of accounts by other slaves to try to describe what their lives could have been like.

pickThis book is definitely a pick! A strong historical fiction book set in 1667 that follows a kidnapped Hector Lynch as he is sold into slavery. It is written well and about such an interesting time period. I learned a lot about this time from reading this book. Slaves seemed to be sold and captured everywhere and by everyone. Felt like Hector was a little too lucky at times but a great book. I'll definitely be continuing this series!
pickI finished another book in this series. It was likable but wasn't my favorite out of the series. I rated this book a 3 out of 5 stars.
I am really enjoying this book. I wasn't sure I would as I had it in my brain that it would be filled with too much gore (no reason why I had this in my head). But this book is just like many other historical fictions books I read with many accurate description and scenes of the time. 1600s are such an interesting part of history! It is well written and makes you want to keep reading. I'm hope to finish this weekend and really enjoying the author.
pickLoved this adult fairy tale. If you love Princess Bride then this is for you. A talking rat, oceans of spores in different hues. A pirate ship lined with silver. Brandon Sanderson is THE storyteller.

A book, a blanket and a grilled cheese is how I'm going to spend a #hyggehour tonight. Need to escape to another time before the chaos of the week takes over. Not sure how many pages I'll read because I could fall asleep at any minute but I'm going to try amd get through the entire hour.
