Author: Baroness Orczy
Narrator: Michael Ward
Publisher: Puffin Books
Genre: Classic, Historical Fiction
Source: Own & Hoopla
My Review:
The Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Orczy is not something I would have picked to read. I read it because it was the classic for my book club this month. The only problem is that I don't typically enjoy classics, and I don't typically read from this period. So, my enjoyment was doomed from the beginning.

Publisher: Zondervan
Genre: Amish, Christian Fiction, Contemporary Romance

My Review:
The Heart's Shelter by Amy Clipston is the fourth book in the Amish Legacy series. There is enough background given that it was easy to dive into this book without reading the other books (I have only read the first one).

Driftwood Lane is the fourth book in the series, but each book easily stands alone. They are connected by location, not people.

Seaside Letters is the third book in the Nantucket Love Stories series. It can easily be read as a standalone novel. Kathryn Lynhurst is a wonderful narrator. Her tone and pacing are just two reasons I continue to listen to books she narrates.

Mr. Gardiner and the Governess is the first book I have read by Sally Britton. Jessica Elisa Boyd is the narrator, and she did a good job.
