A Lady at Willowgrove Hall

by Sarah E. Ladd



Last year, a new author burst onto the scene. Sarah E. Ladd blew us all away with her first novel. I am sure many of you have seen the beautiful cover (which I have added to the bottom of this post). A Lady at Willowgrove Hall is her third book in the Whispers on the Moors series.

Here we find Cecily Faire. As a young, broken, and poor girl, she is sent away from everyone she knows and loves. Spending time in a boarding school has given her opportunities that she never thought possible. Her journey is one of forgiveness and closure. Will she choose to trust God and her heart, or has she been too hurt along the way?

Set in Regency England, this is a beautiful book. Of course, if you know me AT ALL, you know that I could never tire of reading a Regency novel. I enjoy the stories as they move right along. Her characters always have depth and keep me turning the pages. Bravo, Sarah. Keep them coming!!

Thanks so much, Thomas Nelson and NetGalley, for giving me this book in return for some feedback. Here's to many more!!

The 100: Day 21

by Kass Morgan



The 100 have made it to 21 days here on Earth. Day 21. That is the day that the effects of radiation start to show. Is it safe, or are those that are sick in the infirmary showing signs of chemical poisoning?

In the sequel to last year's best seller, The 100, we find Clarke, Bellamy, and Wells fight to survive on earth with little to no supplies. As they find "Earthborns", that are both friendly and hostile, they must decide whom they can trust.

Meanwhile, back on the space station, Glass is fighting for her life as they are quickly running out of oxygen and there aren't enough dropships to get everyone down to Earth.

Kass has, again, written an interesting and exciting dystopian future novel. This one has far less language, than the first. I am thankful for that. Because it held my attention and is such an interesting story, I give this book 4 stars. Keep them coming!!

Thanks, www.netgalley.com for giving me this book for my honest review. Here's to many more!!!
