My life is a train rushing past, and I am just standing there, acting as if I have no choice but to watch and grieve its passing.

A Stitch in Time by: Kelley Armstrong

Initial Thoughts: There are some books out there where I have to shake my head in disbelief. How are they not more popular?! Why is this book mostly unknown to people!? This book is one of those books that should’ve garnered more attention than it did. It has everything any romance lover would want. Time travel, a steamy romance with a brooding man and a mystery. This book should’ve been flying off the shelves!

Summary

Thorne Manor has always been haunted…and it has always haunted Bronwyn Dale. As a young girl, Bronwyn could pass through a time slip in her great-aunt’s house, where she visited William Thorne, a boy her own age, born two centuries earlier. After a family tragedy, the house was shuttered and Bronwyn was convinced that William existed only in her imagination.

Now, twenty years later Bronwyn inherits Thorne Manor. And when she returns, William is waiting.

William Thorne is no longer the boy she remembers. He’s a difficult and tempestuous man, his own life marred by tragedy and a scandal that had him retreating to self-imposed exile in his beloved moors. He’s also none too pleased with Bronwyn for abandoning him all those years ago.

As their friendship rekindles and sparks into something more, Bronwyn must also deal with ghosts in the present version of the house. Soon she realizes they are linked to William and the secret scandal that drove him back to Thorne Manor. To build a future, Bronwyn must confront the past.

The Review

At Thorne Manor, there is a time slip that allows the traveller to go back in time to the Victorian era. When she was very young, Bronwyn Dale slipped through time and met William Thorne, a boy her own age. Every summer until she was fifteen, Bronwyn visited William and eventually they fell in love. But after a tragic sequence of events occurs, Bronwyn is convinced by everyone around her that William does not actually exist.

The Odyssey, translated by Emily Wilson (2018).
It’s been a long time since I posted anything... but I’m back! This weekend, I went to a thrift store to go shopping for some books. Shopping at a thrift store for books is an entirely different experience than going to a bookstore. When I go to a bookstore, I usually have a book in mind that I want to buy and I’ll maybe browse and see what else catches my eye. With a thrift store, you never know what you’ll find. Book 1: The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena. I truly have no idea what it is about, but I think it’s a thriller. Have you read it? Book 2: Evermore by Alyson Noel. So, I read Evermore when I was fourteen and loved it. I thought it might be worth a reread so I could give it a review on my blog. Book 3: Half Broke Horses by Jeannette Walls. I absolutely loved The Glass Castle. I’m curious to see if Half Broke Horses is just as compelling. Finally, Book 4: Quiet by Susan Cain. So, I’m an introvert. Actually, I’m a huge introvert. Plus, I am super shy and constantly anxious. It’s a great combination to have for socializing and meeting new people 😜I’m super curious about this book and what Susan Cain has to say in defence of introverts everywhere. #bookstagram #book #books #quietsusancain #susancain #bookhaul #bookstagrammer #evermore #evermorealysonnoel #halfbrokehorses #jeannettewalls #thecouplenextdoor #sharilapena #booknerd #bookaddict
Currently obsessed with Bridgerton! Have you read The Duke & I or watched the Netflix series? #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booklover #bookcommunity #book #booknerd #bookrecommendations #bridgerton #bridgertons #bridgertonsonnetflix #juliaquinn
I absolutely adored The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society 😍 It’s romantic with a dash of historical fiction. It is also a love letter to some of the greatest classics of all-time. I love how the book is told entirely through letters. I ended up feeling as if the characters were real. Question: have you read this book? Do you like books told through letters? #book #bookstagram #booklover #booknerd #books #bookaddict #bookrecommendations #theguernseyliteraryandpotatopeelpiesociety #maryannshaffer #annieborrows #bookworm
Out of all of Jane Austen’s novels, I cannot seem to remember the storyline of Emma very well. 😅It has been nearly ten years since I read Emma while I was in my first years of high school. The only thing I can remember is that Emma goes around trying to set-up romances. 💕💕 After recently finishing Pride and Prejudice, I would love to reread Emma someday. As always, so many books, so little time. Have you ever read Emma? Have you seen the newest film adaptation? I still haven’t seen it, but it looks amazing 😁 #Emma #Janeausten #emmajaneausten #bookstagram #booklover #book #bookstagrammer #booknerd #booklove #classicnovels
