    Librarian of Boone's Hollow takes place in Kentucky. I really enjoyed that book. I think Vogel did a great job describing the mountain people, the topography, the abuse without going into detail and having Emmet be the Christian leader to Addie and holding her back before being officially engaged. A great example of Christian leadership between two young adults who want to get married.
    Everyone seems to be raving about Hope Between the Pages. Who started this? LOL My library system doesn't have a copy, so I ordered it. I hope I'm not disappointed. I've been to Biltmore many times so I'm hoping it'll be a little nostalgic.
    So happy you had a great May reading month! 🤗

      Gotcha! I didn't think NC sounded right. Yes, I thought the author did a very good job.
      Not sure about the 'Hope Between the Pages' hype with others. For me, I had just finished Basham's Skymar trilogy and wanted to find an 'old' book of hers to fit on my Southern Charm Readathon prompt. It was a stand alone, so I picked that one! I loved it. Hope you do too.

    This video gave me more of an insight into your reading preferences. You’re what I call myself, a gentle, Christian reader. Loved this video. Added more to my TBR. I rarely read reviews. I prefer word of mouth recommendations like yours.

      Sounds about right. I have always been a dreamer and have such a tender heart. I learned recently that I’m what they call a “HSP” apparently.
      Feels like a curse sometimes. 🙃
      Thank you so much, Susan. You are the sweetest! I figured there must be more gentle souls like me out there!! 💙

      Yay. I have been planning to read Basham to zero. Now, Barker is on that list too! Have you read any of Megan Walker’s books? I read one of hers right before I started this channel, so I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned her. Now that I know I have a fellow Regency- loving buddy, I ‘m thinking you may like her. I have only read the one but bought a 2nd book of hers and hope to get to it in July.

      Yes, mystery is good. Wanted. but there are mysteries without the “other” mam. 🤣 Very rare! I thought I had found one. 😊 After the fact, I saw that on Goodreads, the tagline mentions Sherlock Holmes. I enjoyed it anywayz.
