Spinner of Yarns
The Scent of Lilacs by Ann H. Gabhart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I loved this story! It was different than the type of story I normally gravitate to. It is historical, but not as far back in history as I typically read. It’s the story of people who face real-life issues, real-life hurts and disappointments, and are part of a real-life family. And it was told mostly through the eyes of a child. That’s different, and it was very well done. Hard to put down.
