Although I've had time to do a bit more reading recently, I felt a bit rushed getting my monthly bookshelf review ready, so I skipped adding the teaser quotes from the books this time around.
March's Books Completed and Reviewed
During March I started reading:
The House at the End of the Moor by Michelle Griep - I actually just finished this last night - it was a page-turner! An opera singer flees to a lonely part of England, but realizes she may need to face down her past after taking in an injured man who has escaped Dartmoor Prison and hears his story of wrongful imprisonment.
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury - finally reading this classic as I'm teaching a high school literature class.
The Girl With the Louding Voice by Abi Dare
A Murderous Relation by Deanna Raybourn
Claiming Mariah by Pam Hillman
On my blogs recently . . .

Fasnacht Day
The Curse of the Healing Kiss by Mark McClelland - a love story told in the style of an old French fairy tale. A good read, but an unsatisfying ending in my opinion. (Read my full review HERE)
From Sky to Sky by Amanda G. Stevens - in the follow-up to No Less Days, Zac Wilson finds his ideas about faith and justice challenged when he and his fellow longevites find two more of their kind. (Read my full review HERE)
Sojourner Truth: All Men (and Women) are Created Equal - an easy-read chapter book style biography of the famous abolitionist and champion of women's rights. (Read my full review HERE)
Lady of Secrets by G.S. Carr - an interesting story premise featuring a strong free black woman during the Civil War. Her growing friendship and potential romance with a poor Irishman is met with many challenges. (Read my full review HERE)
The Next Always by Nora Roberts - The restoration and grand opening of an historic inn is the backdrop for the romance and drama between architect Beckett and the young widow Clare. (Read my full review HERE)

The color of their skin, the beliefs of many of their fellow countrymen, and the laws of their country hadn't changed. All those things stood in opposition to their union, so what could they really hope for?
The Next Always by Nora Roberts - The restoration and grand opening of an historic inn is the backdrop for the romance and drama between architect Beckett and the young widow Clare. (Read my full review HERE)
She gave the inn a last glance as she drove away. The place had been there for over two centuries, she mused. And somehow it was changing everything.
The Chisholm Trail Bride by Kathleen Y'Barbo - The latest release in the Daughters of the Mayflower series.
The House at the End of the Moor by Michelle Griep - I actually just finished this last night - it was a page-turner! An opera singer flees to a lonely part of England, but realizes she may need to face down her past after taking in an injured man who has escaped Dartmoor Prison and hears his story of wrongful imprisonment.
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury - finally reading this classic as I'm teaching a high school literature class.
During March I continued reading:
Coming Up in April!
Until the Mountains Fall by Connilyn Cossette - As a childless widow, Rivkah is expected to marry her late husband's brother Malakhi, but she resents the Hebrew custom and keeps looking for a way to avoid the wedding.
Coming Up in April!
The Girl With the Louding Voice by Abi Dare
A Murderous Relation by Deanna Raybourn

I liked A Murderous Relation and hope you do too. Come see my week here. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThanks for a whole bunch of new-to-me titles! I am missing my library SO MUCH in this difficult season. It's time to start gathering the books I have yet to read from my own shelves, I guess ...
ReplyDeleteI remember Fahrenheit 451! I had to read it in high school. It wasn’t worst book I was forced to read. Have a good April!
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
Some seem like some new author to me. I know it historical and during the Civil war and I believe I know i will enjoy it. Check out my wrap up here: https://nrcbooks.blogspot.com/2020/03/monthly-wrap-up-march-2020.html
ReplyDeleteThe cover of Lady of Secrets caught my eye. I love that skirt. See what I've read at Girl Who Reads
ReplyDeleteI read Fahrenheit 451 with my daughter last year when she read it for her literature class. I really enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteNicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction
I don't think I ever read Fahrenheit 451. Maybe I need to find a copy after the lockdown/stay at home orders are lifted. I have a copy of The Girl with a Louding Voice now and it's on my TBR for this year. I hope you enjoy it.
