Oct 5, 2020

4.75/5 to be precise! Author Meg Waite Clayton’s newest novel is a biographical, historical, women’s fiction novel about Geertruida Wijsmuller, aka “Tante Truus” who was instrumental in getting thousands of children out of Nazi Germany via the Kindertansport. This powerful and important novel was just released and I hope you’ll read my #bookreview of it on my blog now. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/09/13/saving-a-whole-world/

The Chocolate Lady (94 KP) rated Brides in the Sky: Stories and a Novella in Books

Oct 7, 2020

As promised, my first book review of the New Year is for "Brides in the Sky" by Cary Holliday, which is a collection of mostly historical fiction short stories and a novella. If you ask me, shorter fiction is harder to write than novels, and you can find out if Holladay succeeded with this format on my new blog, here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/01/04/inconvenient-separations/

Greer Macallister’s third historical fiction novel is once again one that includes elements of a thriller and those of an action novel, all while including the psychological aspects of the mentally ill and their treatment during the latter part of the 19th century. Take a look at what I thought of this novel in my newest #bookreview on my blog here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/03/15/pulling-a-nellie-bly/

The Chocolate Lady (94 KP) rated The Art of Regret: A Novel in Books

I don’t often read contemporary fiction, but when I do, I need the book to give me something I can think about. In Mary Fleming’s new book, she certainly does give us just that (and please don’t judge this book by its cover). See what I thought of it in my latest #bookreview on my blog now. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/10/25/a-path-to-changing-gears/

Movie Rating Watch

As much as I loved the cartoon version of Aladdin, the 2019 remake has by far disappointed me. Will Smith was a mistake as genie. The singing from the beginning was a let down, and then throughout the film.

On the other hand the film was alright, besides the new additional songs which was added into the film sung by Princess Jasmine. Kind of ruined it for me.
