I finished my first Whitney Award finalist in the historical category...
Letters in the Jade Dragon Box
, by Gale Sears. It was a pleasantly easy read and I learned a lot about Maoist China. I left a review on Goodreads.
Next up on my Whitney Award reading list...
Fires of Jerusalem
, by Marilyn Brown. Actually, I'm over half-way through with the book. I'll share a Tuesday Teaser with you tomorrow. Until then, here's the back cover blurb:
What happens when the forces of jealousy and greed break a nation into factions? History proves a broken country weakens, and may come undone. Fires of Jerusalem is a novel that explores the breakdown of Jerusalem, and tells why Urijah, Lehi, Jeremiah--and many more--tried to leave it.
