About the Book

Snuggled under her great-grandmother’s quilt, Jemima woke to the sound of slow, easy movement in the room.

I’ve really enjoyed the novels Cindy Woodsmall pens with her daughter-in-law, Erin. They are so well written and engaging; I highly recommend them all. The Englisch Daughter sounds like it is going to be another excellent story. I can’t wait to escape into this one!

  2. Happy Friday! My first line is from “The Vanishing of Olivia Beck” by Sara L. Foust:

    “Olivia Beck pulled her gaze from the rearview mirror for the tenth time in as many minutes. She would not cry.”

  3. Happy Friday!
    I definitely agree with you about Cindy and Erin being an amazing writing team.

    My first line this week on my blog is from The Joy of Falling by Lindsay Harrel:

    “Once upon a time, color had dominated Eva Jamison’s days.”

    Hope you have a lovely rest of your weekend 🙂

  5. On my blog, I’m sharing the first line from Misunderstood Meg by Jo Grafford. Here, I will share the first line in chapter 24 of my current read, Dreams in Deadwood by Kari Trumbo. Jennie scanned the stack of gowns, towels, sheets, nightclothes, napkins, curtains, and other things laying on her side of the bed. Have a wonderful weekend!

  6. I’m doing Before I Called You Mine by Nicole Deese. I’ll use the first line from Chapter 15:

    Like a grouping of cancerous cells, my family’s cynicism had slithered into my subconscious and infected my thoughts with their poison.
