I had 3 5* books (I don't give many 5 *s):
The House in the Cerulean Sea
A Promised Land
Sunflower Sisters
The House in the Cerulean Sea
A Promised Land
Sunflower Sisters

Lincoln on the Verge: Thirteen Days to Washington-highly recommended for a new take Abe
What Stands in a Storm: Three Days in the Worst Superstorm to Hit the South's Tornado Alley-heartbreaking and well researched

I read Jane Eyre for the very first time since I had The Wife Upstairs, a retelling of the classic, on my TBR for another challenge. Jane Eyre has become my all-time favorite classic!! I loved the book soooo much!
The other book is a book that absolutely surprised me: The Star-Crossed Sisters of Tuscany. This kind of book is usually not one of my go-to genres/types of stories, but this one drew me in and made me want to hop on a plane. I loved everything about this book!

I'm not a big fan of graphic novels (or non-fiction), but this was outstanding for me.
To Be Taught, If Fortunate by Becky Chambers
I had read her other books in Fall 2020, but was even more impressed with this one.
