READATHON; BOOK RECOMMENDATIONs CHALLENGE 6.1.15


Taking Sarah's Bout of BOoks 12 Readathon Challenge
on this 2nd day of the Readathon.
Found at Trees of Reverie - here's the Challenge...

Bout of Books
Most booklovers dream of working in a bookstore or a library, so let’s make that dream come true for a day!
The Challenge: You’ve just started to work at a bookstore (or library) - what are your top ten go-to book recommendations?
Prompts:
  • You may select any TEN BOOKS of your choice. These books can be from a specific genre, or you may like to choose a few books from various genres.
  • Make a list of the TEN BOOKS that you’ve selected. Make sure to include the title and author of each book.
*
Having soooo many books that I'd yet love to read,
I feel a bit at a disadvantage in choosing 10 to recommend.
So with the caveat that these are the 10 coming to mind from the books I have read,
 fiction, sub category, historic women's fiction,
I offer my list of 10.
Born of Persuasion - by Jessica Dotta, Girl in the Gatehouse - Julie Klassen,
A Necessary Deception - Laurie Alice Eakes, The Rose of Winslow Street - Elizabeth Camden,
Elusive Dreams - MaryLu Tyndall, Into the Whirlwind - Elizabeth Camden
A Lady's Honor + Lady in the Mist - Laurie Alice Eakes,
The Persuasion of Miss Jane Austen- Shannon Winslow, Hope at Dawn - Stacy Henrie
*
Soooo - which have you read?  and which would you choose to read?
*
Thanks for the Challenge, Sarah!
