The House of Lincoln: A Novel | Nancy Horan

pick

I had a headache for a day and half or I would have finished this book in two days instead of 4. My first book for the #JoysofJune Readathon. @Andrew65

The House of Lincoln is a historical fiction based on true facts of Lincoln's life in Springfield, ILL . It also talks about a little known race riot in 1908 in that happened in that town.

It's told from different view points, but the chapters aren't POV. ⬇️

MonicaLoves2Read Ana, a Portuguese immigrant, that is young when her family moves to Springfield. Spenser Donnegan, a black minister and barber that helps his brother with the Underground Railroad. Mary Todd Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln's wife. With these three narrators you get a different feel for that time. The struggles each dealt with from friendships, family and love.

I wished that part of the things I read, would have been by one of the narrators instead of just facts and information. I could tell that Horan had researched this book well.

It published on June 6, 2023

Thanks to Netgalley and Sourcebooks Landmark for the E-ARC. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

🙂 Happy Reading 🙃

Holy Moly! I couldn't figure out who to believe! Meg, the con artist, who has wanted revenge since her senior year of high school. Kat, a journalist, who has wanted revenge for 10 years. Or, Scott, Kat's boyfriend.

Loved Clark's book, 'The Last Flight', and thought this one was just as good.

EadieB @Andrew65 I'm glad it's a standalone as I don't like to read out of order and I have only read his first book in his series. 5y

Andrew65 @EadieB I‘ve read the first two but not any standalones. 5y

gradcat Oooh, this one sounds really good...I‘ve never read anything by this author. Can‘t wait for your review, @EadieB ... would you tag me, please? ♥️ 5y

EadieB @gradcat I should be reading it soon and I will definitely tag you with the review. 5y
