The Tides of Time by Sarah M. Eden


 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I enjoyed this very much. Time travel stories always boggle the brain and cannot help but leave unanswered questions. 

But, still, the possibilities,  twists and turns hold my interest. This story is well done. The French Revolution was far more nefarious than I recalled or perhaps paid attention to. Lili and Armitage share so much and understand so little, but they care deeply. It's hard to describe their story, but I certainly recommend it.

I look forward to the next installment in the Storm Tide series!

I received an eVersion from the publisher.

The Curious Inheritance of Blakely House by Joanna Davidson Politano


 COULD NOT PUT THIS DOWN

I started this book midday and read it to the end around 11pm. WOW. 

It is such a different kind of book.  It gave some H.G. Wells/Nicholas Tesla/Steampunk vibes. It is always told from 1st person, but the POV does shift around.

There are unexpected mysteries I was not able to guess at. Additionally, I loved the heroine (introverted tinkerer) and hero (compassionate French Pirate).  

The faith build is slow, and the author addresses that after the story.

QUOTEABLE: "I had done more than glimpse God out here. I had experienced him. Been driven to the edge until I tasted and felt him. And it left me starving for more."

This book is an incredibly well-written historical fiction novel. 

I highly recommend it, especially if you are ready for a change of pace!

I received this eBook from the Publisher via NetGalley.
