Awesome! If you decide to give it a try, I'd love to know what you think afterwards!Lunastella wrote: ↑16 Jul 2018, 05:05I really think this is the book I´ve been looking for!katiesquilts wrote: ↑15 Jul 2018, 03:15
A Girl Like You is the perfect mix between Historical fiction, Romance, and murder mysteries.
I´m not a fan of stereotypical characters but the great pace and the very interesting plot and genre mix really make me want to take the day off just to read this from start to finish.
I do, however, dislike the portrayal of gays that you mention. I think I´d have to see for myself if it´s a timing thing (as you said, it was not accepted in that time period) or if it´s really uncalled for.
Thanks for a very interesting and honest review!
It's always fun to compare books with others and see how they would rate them.

I definitely agree with you! I love strong women who have to sacrifice something (such as time and effort) to protect those close to them. Sometimes it's hard when those same people, for example Henrietta's mother, take that for granted, though...Rosemary Khathibe wrote: ↑29 Jul 2018, 07:16 The fact that the girl was responsible enough to look after her mother and siblings just attracted me to read this book. All she needed was money to provide for her family, little did she know what she would get herself into. Despite the errors, I'm definitely adding this book on my to-read list. Thanks for the great review.
