From the moment Makepeace Burke fishes Englishman Sir Philip Dapifer out of the Charles River in pre-Revolutionary War Boston, saving his life, her own is forever changed. Suddenly finding herself ranked a traitor for rescuing a member of the English aristocracy, Makepeace is forced to leave her home and set out on a journey that will steer her in directions of which she could never have dreamed. A Catch of Consequence is at once a vivid historical novel, a haunting love story, and an unforgettable portrait of a remarkable woman. Diana Norman has crafted another richly textured tale of passion, loss, and courage—and of the power and the pain wrought from being true to oneself against all odds.

Ok, I have two suggestions for books.
ReplyDeleteStiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers- Mary Roach, Surprisingly interesting and funny
Geography of Bliss- Eric Weiner, really funny and a nice "feel good" book
I'm finally getting around to figuring out this blog so hopefully I can jump on for the next book!
All right. Now I know I have made no comments on any books yet! But I love that you are doing this. I have read two of the three so far (only because my library didn't have the last one). I'm just dying for a new good book! I like that you have to do all the work and find me one :)) all joking aside please don't stop I promise I will speed the word about the blog and make comments!!
