The Corset

[Shaylaina]

Does anyone enjoy a dark, gothic, Victorian-era story?  I was crazily involved in this story.  Drawn right in.  

Ruth is a poor teenager in London.  We all know how horrible and traumatic life was for children of poverty.

Dorothea is an heiress.  

Their lives come together in a way that, I don't believe has been done in any other book.  

Despite the deaths and cruelty, I really enjoyed this story. This seems odd, but there is something about how it is written.

It is the season for colds. My Granddaughter brought home a cold from school. My 9 month old Grandson caught it. I took him to a children's walk in clinic and waited a couple hours for him to see a doctor. I've been sick ever since. He is getting better.

huhhhh intriguing, Worth a read to me.
A good book also, that i read, "Prodigal daughter, set back in 1900's- about her and her father, growing up encouraging her and at best the father guides her as she owns a clothing store, meets her man and becomes close to president.
Its really how its written; going threw world wars and just so enlightening for young women!
i read in 2016!
Thanks for the likey!

I went and read about the book, Prodigal Daughter. It does sound like a good read. I know I've read Jeffery Archer before. I can't remember what books of his, but I remember his name.
