The Hidden City by Charles Finch

I always try to find a read now option on NetGalley so that I can broaden my horizons. I was so happy that I found this one! A wonderful book! Here"s my review: I found this to be a smashing good book! There are several mysteries, new family members, and a glimpse into women's suffrage. I have not read any of the previous books but I never felt lost or like I was missing something. The characters are well written and for the most part likeable. Lenox is my favorite! He's genuine, compassionate, and trustworthy. He never gives up on a case or a person. Montague amazed me! He's young, but smart and eager to learn. I enjoyed reading about the Swedish gymnasium and Sven the instructor! I'd like to hire him!! I was provided a complimentary copy of the book from Minotaur Books via Netgalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Becoming Madam Secretary by Stephanie Dray

I really enjoyed this book! It inspired me to research this time period and the people who shaped history then! Here's my review: This is an intriguing and interesting book! Historical fiction is my favorite genre, and this book is captivating. I had never heard of Frances Perkins before. I will definitely be researching her life and the ways that she attributed to politics. She was an amazing woman who sacrificed a lot to help her country. If you read this book, let me know what you think! Jeanette

Until We All Share Joy by Heather Wood

This is a wonderful novella! I was totally captivated by the story in its entirety. The characters are relatable and easy to like. Titan is my favorite! His compassion and gentleman-like ways are endearing. He grows so much during the book and he also helps others grow. Grandfather Gates is wonderful! He appears gruff and grouchy but he has a heart of gold. This book helped me to remember how blessed I am to have a family that loves me and to cherish every moment with them. I can't wait to read the rest of the books in the series!

The Higher Desire Wife by J Parker

There's a lack of Christian books available to review on Library Thing so this is one that I chose to win. It's pretty explicit in some areas, some of it actually made me blush. Here's my review: I found this book to be interesting and informative! This book outlines helpful information for women whose sexual drive is higher than their husbands. The author provides hope, advice, and even scriptures to help women as they walk this path. I found a lot of wisdom and practical ways to apply this information in my own life. I won this book from Baker Books via LibraryThing!
