Little Feminist Board Book Set I have listened/read on a very long time. The author weaves between the characters beautifully, developing them so the reader really has a sense of "knowing them". It is a well rounded book with an excellent beginning, middle and end, intertwining the story so the reader does not forget or miss any details. Wingate has an exceptional way for describing feelings, emotions, and visuals that you have a vivid picture throughout the whole book.Loved the pace and it was easy to imagine the characters. Author Little Feminist Board Book Set built the story slowly and many surprises kept it interesting. Loved the characters and all the emotions Little Feminist Board Book Set touched on.shipped quickly. great book. book club loved it.Definitely recommend Little Feminist Board Book Set. First I’ve read from this author.


I was pleasantly surprised and felt Little Feminist Board Book Set book was deserving of

top stars. The multiple threads running through the story intersect in a way that of course you expect, but written in such a manner that the reader feels the excitement of close calls, the frustration of people and sometimes life , and how in the end it can work out. The story was quite engaging and enjoyable. A story about a college student, his fractured family, and a parolee who happens to be dying.I enjoyed the Little Feminist Board Book Set book and the characters.

The ending and sneak peak into another book by the author does intrigue me to read it as well.I loved this book so much that I read most of it in one day. Intending to “just finish this chapter”, I found myself reading one more and then one more until I finished them all. The story, while a little far fetched at times, is incredibly compelling.


The author's contribution in the personal energy of each character seemed present in some ways for some characters, and present in other characters in other ways, which leant first-hand and "informed" believability to the tale. I found the structure suprisingly elegant, and one that delivered on multiple levels, and added additional enjoyment to the read. It seems carefully and lovingly put together and is generous with useful and hopeful insights to compensate for the realistic portrayal of predation, intolerance, violence and the evils that challenge us, yet make this suspensful thriller so fun.This was a good read with an interesting mystery and solidly developed characters.

Having read other similar mysteries, it did not really surprise me. I was a bit disappointed with the last quarter of the book for this reason.An excellent story. The plot is believable and the characters are engaging. This is one of those hidden gems that never made it to anyone's top 10. You have to look for it but once you find it you won't be disappointed.



I found Little Feminist Board Book Set book compelling and couldn't put it down. I like the author's style of writing and the alternating point of view in every other chapter was creatively done and created suspense which made me want to read more. The characters were real and believable. I love Little Feminist Board Book Set book that evokes an emotional response, and it would be hard to read this book and not be moved. It piqued my interest about a subject about which I had little knowledge. I gave it four stars because I found the embedded love story a little too predictable; still , it was a highly enjoyable read!Wonder book. Unbelievable that things written in this book really happened. The book is fiction but the facts has been taken from records. Every child should be loved as God intended. Would highly recommend this book. A must read.This is a wonderful and heart breaking book to read.

I am both sad and glad to have learned about this awful time in the history of adoption. It was a well written and well researched book and I recommend it for everyone.I could not put this book down. The story was well written and based on events that actually happened. The story of the sisters is fictionalized but The Tennessee Children's Home was a terrible place where children were used as pawns to make money. The story of family, love and sisters is inspirational.I was intrigued by this book because it was based on a true story. The author writes so well, and the story flows effortlessly, I couldn't put it down. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a good story that will pull you in, and look forward to the next moments you can steal away to read what happens next.Excellent page turner about a dismal epic in history. The uplifting conclusion serves to restore a positive frame around what could have been a very tragic picture. Characters, both from the present and past, are well drawn. Ultimately, a tribute to truth and the power of family.

I found the structure suprisingly elegant, and one that delivered on multiple levels, and added additional enjoyment to the read. It seems carefully and lovingly put together and is generous with useful and hopeful insights to compensate for the realistic portrayal of predation, intolerance, violence and the evils that challenge us, yet make this suspensful thriller so fun.This was a good read with an interesting mystery and solidly developed characters.

Having read other similar mysteries, it did not really surprise me. I was a bit disappointed with the last quarter of the book for this reason.An excellent story. The plot is believable and the characters are engaging. This is one of those hidden gems that never made it to anyone's top 10. You have to look for it but once you find it you won't be disappointed.



I found Lilac Lane (A Chesapeake Shores Novel) book compelling and couldn't put it down.

Unbelievable that things written in this book really happened. The book is fiction but the facts has been taken from records. Every child should be loved as God intended.

I am both sad and glad to have learned about this awful time in the history of adoption. It was a well written and well researched book and I recommend it for everyone.I could not put this book down. The story was well written and based on events that actually happened.

The story of family, love and sisters is inspirational.I was intrigued by this book because it was based on a true story. The author writes so well, and the story flows effortlessly, I couldn't put it down. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a good story that will pull you in, and look forward to the next moments you can steal away to read what happens next.Excellent page turner about a dismal epic in history. The uplifting conclusion serves to restore a positive frame around what could have been a very tragic picture. Characters, both from the present and past, are well drawn. Ultimately, a tribute to truth and the power of family.

The multiple threads running through the story intersect in a way that of course you expect, but written in such a manner that the reader feels the excitement of close calls, the frustration of people and sometimes life , and how in the end it can work out.

The ending and sneak peak into another book by the author does intrigue me to read it as well.I loved this book so much that I read most of it in one day. Intending to “just finish this chapter”, I found myself reading one more and then one more until I finished them all. The story, while a little far fetched at times, is incredibly compelling.
