Waiting on Wednesday ~ Hurricane Season by Lauren K. Denton

I'm linking up with Wishful Endings to share an upcoming release I'm excited about.

What I'm waiting for:

Hurricane Season

When does it release? April 3, 2018

Why am I waiting? I love family dramas, especially when they are set in the deep south. This one looks really good.

Top Ten Tuesday ~ Books That Take Place in Other Countries

I'm linking up with That Artsy Reader Girl to share today's top ten list.

I was pleasantly surprised when I looked at my shelves at how many books I have read that take place in other countries. I mostly read historical fiction, and I think that genre naturally lends itself to diverse reading. Still, most of the books I read take place in Europe, so there's always room for improvement. Here are some of my recent international favorites.

Asia/Africa/The Middle East

Egypt's Sister: A Novel of Cleopatra (The Silent Years, #1)

Return to Me (The Restoration Chronicles #1)

Snow Flower and the Secret Fan

Egypt's Sister

Return to Me

The Legend of Sheba

Moon in the Mango Tree

Europe

The Innkeeper of Ivy Hill (Tales from Ivy Hill, #1)

The Accidental Empress

The Innkeeper of Ivy Hill

I Was Anastasia

Last Christmas in Paris

The Distant Hours

Best Books of Winter

I thought it would be fun at the start of a new season to take a moment and reflect on some of my favorite reads from the past few months. We have very mild winters where I live, but I still love to cozy up with a blanket and a cup of coffee and read a book. Here are some of my favorite books from last winter.

Stay with Me
The Distant Hours
