    Audiobook review: Cooking for Picasso

    March 16, 2017 / No Comments

    Cooking for Picasso by Camille Aubray Genre: contemporary, history, audiobook Publisher: Random House (AUDIOBOOK) Date: August 9, 2016 Pablo Picasso. The name conjures up images galore. Even those with virtually no knowledge of art know that he was a genius. He changed everything people ever imagined about art. We know the art, but how much do we know about the man? In 1936 Pablo Picasso was already a well-established master of his craft and well set in his ways. In his 50’s, he knew how good he was. He knew his reputation and what his paintings were worth, so his ego was already pretty well-established too. Seventeen year old Ondine is…

    Review: The Orphan’s Tale by Pam Jenoff

    February 21, 2017 / No Comments

    Title:  The Orphan’s Tale Author: Pam Jenoff Genre: historical Publisher: MIRA Date:  February 21, 2017 Sixteen year old Noa had a life that was serviceable. It wasn’t anyone’s dream life but she had a roof over her head and parents who met her needs – for the most part. That all changed when she revealed to her folks that she was going to have a baby. Not only that, the father was a Nazi. Thrown out with no possibility of returning home, she had to make her way in the world when things were already impossibly hard for everyone. She thought she had a plan for her life when she found a home…

    Book Review: Ben Hur by Carol Wallace

    July 12, 2016 / No Comments

    Title: Ben Hur Author: Carol Wallace Genre: Historical Publisher: Tyndale Date: July 19, 2016 Ben Hur. The very title of this book evokes immediate response in generations of people. Most instantly have horses, chariots and roman gladiators in mind. Some picture Charlton Heston. Some might even have a bit of a stab of guilt because they haven’t read the book or watched the film.  I fell into that latter category until recently. Judah Ben-Hur is a Jewish nobleman. He’s always only known comfort, luxury, and preferential treatment. Though he treats others well, his best friend, Messala, comes to resent him. Unaware of his friend’s anger, Judah still treats his friend…

    Through Waters Deep by Sarah Sundin Reviewed by Lori Twichell Genre : Historical Publisher: Revell Date: August 4, 2015 Mary Stirling is beautiful, smart, and captivating. She also avoids the spotlight any chance she can get/ Her work at the Boston Naval yards just as the U.S. is gearing up to head into WWII keeps her busy. So when handsome Naval officer Jim Avery shows up, Mary is content to show the most popular boy from her high school class around, but she’s certainly not interested in anything more. And that’s okay because Jim, following in his family’s footsteps to join the military, isn’t interested in a girlfriend or anything…

    August 27, 2015 / 1 Comment

    Last Summer at Chelsea Beach by Pam Jenoff Genre: Historical Fiction Publisher: Mira Date: July 28, 2015 Adelia Montforte didn’t want to leave Italy, but with war breaking out and the Jewish people growing ever more afraid for their lives, her parents forced her onto a boat with no luggage, no money, and little hope of ever seeing them again. For anyone this would be terrifying but for a teenager struggling to figure out who she is, it was devastating. In America, her life is anything but settled. She barely knows the relatives she’s living with and she understands that taking her in wasn’t something they were necessarily happy about…

    Book Review: Let Me Die In His Footsteps by Lori Roy

    June 22, 2015 / No Comments

    Let Me Die In His Footsteps by Lori Roy Genre: Historical Publisher: Dutton Date: June 2, 2015 Everyone knows that Hollerans don’t go near Baines. That’s a fact. So it’s a foolish and dangerous thing for Annie Holleran to sneak up to the Baines place to look in their well. You see, it’s also a fact that a girl, exactly halfway between her fifteenth and sixteenth birthday, needs to look deep into a well to see the face of the man she’s going to marry. It’s a tradition and it’s one that folks take very seriously. Instead of a big entourage of people to celebrate with her, Annie simply puts…
