Welcome to Litsy!

I had no idea about the Highland Clearances before this novel. People were being forcibly removed from their homes in the Highlands & the islands by their landlords. It‘s bleak and devastating. This novella follows John, a minister-turned-errand boy who is sent to evict Ivar, the last inhabitant on his island. John becomes injured and Ivar saves his life. Their growing bond, and the arrival of John‘s wife Mary, challenge what family really means.

Looking forward to some good books this month!! #septembertbr

Not my usual genre. I liked the writing style. 3rd person for the main narrative and 1st person for the MC's past. Well written and kept me hooked!
