Bethr1986 (305 KP) rated Witch's Knight (The Bloodline Chronicles, #1) in Books

I'm just going to jump straight in. This is the first of the bloodline chronicles and I cannot wait for the next. I have been truly captivated by the story and the characters!
There is fighting, sex and discoveries, all so well put together that it has been a pleasure to read. Both of the main characters Sarai and Marcelle have heartbreaking backstories and have been through so much hardship to do with families that they find it hard to trust anybody, but they have found each other and it's like they've been made for each.
I really cannot wait to find out where these characters go and I hope they get the happiness they deserve.
A recommendation from me for sure

I have always thought that Singapore was beautiful and had amazing things, their airport is legendary as is the park in the sky.
It was a great introduction into how some Chinese families work, and how they are obsessed with finding the right match for their children, which doesn’t just mean a nice person, they have to come from a good family with money or they are looked down upon.
I also liked how Kevin Kwan used a lot of the phrases and words that would be used in real conversations and explained them in the footnotes so that it still seemed authentic while reading.
I would definitely love to carry on this series!

Alison Pink (7 KP) rated Secret Daughter in Books
Jan 15, 2018
The American couple end up having fertility issues, while the destitute couple in India are exactly the opposite. Not wanting to know her husband has disposed of another unwanted girl, the Indian mother smuggles her baby daughter to an orphanage in Mumbai. And it is there, where the American couple end up adopting her.
The story moves through the life of the girl in parallel with the lives of her adoptive and biological parents. In the end it is a tear jerker, but has a great message about who your real family is.
