Here are the books I read this month:
My sister had recommended this one to
me after she finished it in Oxnard. I think historical fiction is one of my favorite genres. I LOVED this one and would highly recommend it! Here’s a tiny synopsis:
“Soline Roussel, once heir to her family’s Paris bridal salon famed for gowns said to bring happiness, loses everything during World War II and shuts her heart to love. Decades later in 1980s Boston, aspiring gallery owner Rory Grant—reeling from her fiancé’s disappearance—leases Soline’s old shop. There she uncovers a wedding dress and letters that lead her to Soline. As the two women’s lives intertwine, they discover uncanny parallels in their losses and a shared chance at healing. Through their bond, both learn that love, hope, and even happy endings may still be possible.”
Eden has absolutely fallen in love with reading and she loves when I read books with her at the same time. She LOVED this one and I have to agree, I did too. We would a highly recommend it!
Here’s a short synopsis:
“Lina Emerson, grieving her mother, travels to Florence, Italy to fulfill her late mother’s dying wish—to get to know Howard, a friend from her mother’s past. She soon discovers Howard is actually her father, a surprising and emotional truth. While staying with him—who lives in a WWII cemetery—Lina receives her mother’s journal from her time in Italy. As she reads it, a tapestry of art, romance, and secret lives unfolds. With the help of Ren, a charming local, Lina immerses herself in Italy’s beauty and gelato… uncovering long-hidden family secrets, confronting the mystery of her parentage, and learning more about who she is and what home means.”
