  4. Cat ~ Women of Magdalene is historical fiction set just after the civil war and focuses on an asylum for women. I think it's going to evoke some strong emotion!

  27. Sheree...you have an interested list of reads lined up. I look forward to hearing what you think of those books. I read Captive of Sin and did enjoy the story. Women of Magdalene looks very interesting. Beautiful Creatures...hmmm...this was one of the books in Nov. that I just could not get into. I think it was me and that my reading mood was not completely up for this type of read. I do want to know what you think...should I give it another go? It sitting on my bookshelf all sad (hehe) for not being completed. :(
