Sold on a Monday
by Kristina McMorris
Sold on a Monday (8/19/2018)
Great read for historical fiction fans. Ellis Reed and Lillian Palmer, characters in Sold on a Monday, are newspaper employees whose personal demons don't stop them from attempting to right wrongs they inadvertently set in motion with the publication of a photo that captured the desperation of a family suffering from depression era poverty. McMorris captures the mood of an era as well as the morality of the times. It's a great story, with fascinating characters that I hope she revisits in further novels.
