⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️½ Book One in the Timeless series What if you had to choose between two lives? I’ve always been a sucker for time travel—especially when it’s wrapped in history, heart, and just enough tension to keep you flipping pages past bedtime. Gabrielle Meyer’s When the Day Comes does exactly that. I loved this story so much. The setup is gold: Libby lives two lives—one in 1774 Williamsburg, the other in 1914 New York. On her 21st birthday, she has to choose which life to keep living. I mean… talk about a high-stakes birthday. Both timelines are richly drawn. In colonial Virginia, Libby faces an arranged marriage and the sparks of revolution. In […]

Like, witch trial […]

December 2021 Reads
So, I only got through seven books in December, but in my defense, I have four great excuses for my lack of production: Coming in at well over nine hundred pages, Go Tell the Bees That I am Gone counts for at least two books; I had a wicked stomach bug for a week; Grammies have gifts to buy; Jesus is the reason for the season. Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone by Diana Gabaldon The ninth book in Gabaldon’s Outlander series finds the Fraser family reunited during the American Revolution. It’s 1779, and Claire and Jamie Fraser have found each other across time and space and […]
