I told you I read a ton of books over my blogging holiday. So, dive in and find a good read. ;-)
MY LORD AND SPYMASTER Joanna Bourne: Historical Romance
This is another wonderful Joanna Bourne romance! Her historical details are lovely and the characters are enticing. This is what all historical romances should be like.
ETHAN OF ATHOS Lois McMaster Bujold: SF-Space Opera
An ingenious and twisty tale of gender roles and espionage as only Lois McMaster Bujold could create.
NOBLE HOUSE James Clavell: Historical Suspense
This is another of Clavell's excellent historical fictions about Asia. This time it's Hong Kong in 1963. As always there are a lot of characters, but they are skillfully woven into the tapestry of a riveting story. The backstory of the Straun's and their company is wonderful. As always, Clavell gives a good read.
ONCE BELOVED Amara Royce: Historical Romance
Another of the Needlework for the Needy has found a chance for love--but only if she faces her anxieties and returns to her hometown.
Next Week: A bit of humor to tide us over...
Zan Marie,
ReplyDeleteAmara and Jo. Two of my favourite historical romance authors. Nice to see you online again. Hope the hand is fully healed and that your edits are well under way. :0)
Mine too! Funny how Forumites stick together with good stories. ;-)
DeleteYay for Amara!
ReplyDeleteI agree, all romances should seek to be as good as Jo's. But if they were, my TBR pile would be endless (instead of merely a mountain).
LOL! Why do you think I read all the time? ;-)
DeleteHooray for good reads. Jo and Amara are amazing and I love Bujold.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to share good reads, isn't it?
