I didn't know what I was getting into with Laurie Moore-Moore's Gone to Dallas. As much as I read historical romance, I don't actually read any historical fiction. So, for me to read a historical fiction book about Texas while being a Texan is a bit of a trip!

I can tell you, reader, that Moore-Moore definitely knows her stuff regarding Texas and its history. The story itself is about Sara, an extremely likable character by the way, and her journey to Texas. She ends up in a very different situation than she started off with. I truly enjoyed reading about Sara's journey and the turns life gave her. It was such an interesting juxtaposition for someone like me who isn't used to the historical fiction genre, but is used to having a strong female protagonist (it really is my favorite part of the romance genre).

I found Moore-Moore's knowledge and ability to write an enthralling story while still teaching me a thing or two (and more) about Texas quite awesome. Above all, Sara's character is really my favorite part of this story because she makes for a strong and lovely character. This western has heart and so I recommend it to anyone who shies away from westerns / historical fiction (ahem, me). This work gives a great blend of having heart and being interesting that will keep any reader captivated until the last page.

Review: Holding On Loosely

10/12/2021

│ Amazon│

Holding On Loosely by Dana Knox Wright is one of those books that can hit you just right when you are ready for it. It was a lovely read that took me through a roller coaster of emotions along with the author. There were definitely parts that made me chuckle and others that made me tear up. I was able to truly appreciate what it means to let go of something as I read this book.

Perhaps this book hit differently because I lost my sister earlier this year. Ever since it happened, I notice that I see things very differently. I found that this book was able to match me in the emotion department. Although I am not a big reader of anything referencing God, I was able to appreciate the reader's point of view.

It's hard for me to say what I would have gotten from this book if I was not in the place in my life that I am in now. I believe anyone can gather something from learning to let go. We all have things and people we need to (or should) let go of. I believe that this author is able to express that to her reader in the best way possible - by her expressive and captivating writing.

Review: What Lies Beneath

It's amazing how much history a graveyard can hold for the living to see if only we take the time to look! That is the message I received from Cynthia Leal Massey's What Lies Beneath: Texas Pioneer Cemeteries and Graveyards. Through substantial research, Massey is able to provide to us snippets of history in a detailed and very organized way. Any aficionado of cemeteries (yes, I do believe there is such a thing) would do themselves the favor of picking up What Lies Beneath. With its organizational guide of graveyards, cemeteries, forts, etc., Massey gives an extensive and quite informational layout of what to see and what to expect. Each place brimming with history to inspect.

What Lies Beneath is a great read for anyone interested in combining their love of history, Texas, and the slightly spooky. The stories within these pages are interesting and easy to read through - there was no putting this book down! I also plan on keeping it handy for the next time I travel through our state. I think you should too!
