📚 New Review 📚 ⠀
⠀
The Orange Grove gets ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from me! ⠀
⠀
This book is set in a chateau in France in 1705. The Duc and Duchesse live there with the Duc’s 5 mistresses. They frequently travel to Versailles together and have many intriguing visitors. There are plenty of illegitimate children running around too. This setting makes for a lot of drama and tension, especially with the wife and mistresses. When a new, young and beautiful mistress joins the house, things get crazy. ⠀
⠀
This one has sex, spying, black magic, poison, duels, and so much scandal. I read this book very quickly and was enthralled by all the craziness. If you enjoy historical fiction and family drama, you’ll probably like this one. It reminded me a lot of The Other Boleyn Girl and other stories of the many wives of Henry VIII. The only thing missing for me was a little depth and more detail in bedroom scenes. ⠀

Thank you very much to @katemurdoch2 for sending this to me. I’ve already lent it to my sister 😊 Enjoy your Sunday!!

Last night I finished The Orange Grove, review coming soon, and started the next book in The Witcher series! I plan to read my #angieway pages for this one today and then finally start reading To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before 💕💕 ⠀

Yesterday morning I was feeling good, then our province announced the closure of most construction sites. So we are no longer an essential business and we can’t work. I’ve got a lot of feelings that I’ve been trying to reign in. Today I’m definitely just going to enjoy the sun and the reading time and try not to worry. ⠀

I know my story is almost the same as everyone’s right now. We are in a tough situation bookworms, but we are together, we can support each other, my dms are always open. 💕
