The Caretaker: A Novel
by Ron Rash

The Caregive (10/8/2023)

wonderful story...first book I read by this author.. Very emotional and a great ending. It would make a great movie. I recommend this book.

Daughter of Fortune
by Isabel Allende

(4/24/2002)

Read this book when it first came out & loved it. I like historical fiction & like Allende's writing. If you liked this book I recommend that you read her sequel "Portrait in Sepia" which continues the story of Eliza and her family.
