I need everyone to read this book! 📚

When I was reading this book I could tell right away that this was going to be a new favorite. To me this book is the perfect combination. It's a historical fiction that is also a mystery and has a magical realism aspect to it. I think about this book at least once a week. You're following two sisters who get separated as children who are finding their way back together as adults and the story is just so beautiful and heartbreaking. I cannot recommend it enough.

With a Goodreads rating of 4.07, this novel by Patti Callahan Henry captivates readers through its dual timeline and rich historical settings. The combination of mystery and an underlying magical element enriches the narrative, creating an engaging and emotional journey for readers. The story revolves around the bond between sisters, exploring themes of separation and reunification, which resonate deeply with many. As those who appreciate literary works often express, the ability to connect with characters on such a personal level is what keeps them engaged.
