For me, Pachinko is one that I “Couldn’t Stop Thinking About!”

Have to totally agree with Angie on this one, being a K-drama fan I was really looking forward to it, but that second half, UGH!

I'm a Historical Fiction kinda person too, so a few suggestions of books you might like. Kate Quinn: Read The Alice Network first and loved it. Have since read The Rose Code, The Diamond Eye and The Huntress. Loved them all. Ken Follett: Fall of Giants trilogy and Pillars of the Earth (soon to be 5 books in the series). Thought this was a stable of Historical fiction lovers, so will really reccomend checking these out. They are a bit long, but so so good. Amy Harmon: Since you have one of her boos on there, I also loved From Sand And and Ash.

I know historical fiction can be hard to read, but I hope you get back into reading it more! Recent ones I've enjoyed were: The Circus Train, and A Girl Called Samson.

This was good to watch and take notes. My birthday is in November, and I fill the entire month by reading my favorite genre, which is Historical Fiction. Looks like I need to read more Susan Meissner.

@kathykovach9937 Жыл бұрын

This was very interesting. I find it interesting how we agree on so many books but are polar opposites on others. I feel like if I can figure out what that element is, I would never pick out a book I didn't like. For example, I dnf'd the Forgotten Garden and the Seven Husbands, but Children's Blizzard was close to a 5 star read for me. Thanks for sharing!

First of all, thanks for a great video! I have not read homegoing but based on what you described, i think you would enjoy by Brit Bennet. It is also about two sisters who takes on completely different paths in life. It also shares the generational element like . So the sisters grew up in the 1950s in a southern black community and the book continues on to tell the stories of their respected children's lives in the 1990s. Hope you give it a read!

Just wanted to say thx for this video again. Since watching it 2 months ago I've read Homegoing and The giver of stars. I have also read "Where the Lost Wander" and on the back of that "What the wind knows" and "The unknown beloved" both by Amy Harmon. Shes one of my top 5 authors at this point. I'm now reading "The Nature of Fragile Things" and I really like it so far.

I enjoyed the book of lost names and I didn’t dislike the mom. I actually felt for her because her daughter made choices for her. Working in the resistance is great and noble of course but she put her mom I’n danger against her will. It’s one thing if it’s just you and another if you’re taking care of somebody else who didn’t ask for this.
