This was the result of a charity shop book splurge earlier this year. Am almost finished devouring it (started it yesterday), review to shortly follow!

I couldn’t put this book down. I was totally sucked backwards to the 1850s and the life of Honor Bright. This book was dramatic, exciting, interesting and very moving. I appreciated that it is inspired by the real historical events of The Underground Railroad. The extra content in this edition explaining the authors inspirations, writing process, historical context and research made for very interesting reading. The ending was rather dramatic and not at all what I expected. I think this could be her best work to date.

Taking this to today’s London Meet Up Of BookCrossers In Knights Templar Pub. If someone doesn’t pick this up it will most likely get wild released after.

If you have picked up a book from here, You may have noticed there is a little hand written note/sticker inside with a unique number and direction to the BookCrossing website. In a nutshell, BookCrossing allows you the reader to become a part of the Books story. You can track the recorded movements of the book and add an opinion on the story. It’s free and you can do it anonymously. But if you join, you will get notified when the next reader journals it. You wouldn’t believe how far some books go!

A wishlist book. Thank you.

Was given another copy so bringing this one to the Uncon as Shahrun can’t make it.

Picked up from the book table.

I always enjoy Tracy Chevalier's books, and this was no exception.
The two themes running through the book of quilting (of course had to Google the patterns mentioned), and the runaway slaves were very interesting, especially as I have recently read Colson Whitehead's book Underground Railroad.

On a bench.
