Musings of a Book Junkie

Unabridged Chick
: A wonderful historical fiction debut
Book of Secrets
: From the first line, THE MIDWIFE'S TALE grabbed my attention and didn't let go.
Musings of ALMYBNENR
: The characters were fantastic but the murder mystery (or should I say “mysteries”?) were both equally vexing.
