Out in the Field by Kate McMurray5/13/2023 Tess Bailey is a heroine for our times: a tall, fierce woman who struggles to find balance between her own desires and her sense of responsibility to her crew and the most vulnerable members of the galaxy. Her delectable banter leaps off the page and makes you wish she would go write a Star Wars movie yesterday (but not until she finishes this series, because I need more RIGHT NOW). Bouchet offers up a rip-roaring space opera that feels utterly cinematic in scope and tone. Only Shade is also secretly a bounty hunter, and Tess might just be the final job he requires. When Tess ends up stranded on a planet with a broken-down ship, she recruits scalawag Shade Ganavan to assist with repairs, falling for him in the process. Tess Bailey is one of the most-wanted women in the galaxy, captain of a crew of nightchasers - rebels who roam through space stealing supplies and more to help the resistance fight back against the tyranny of the so-called Overlord. Review: It’s hard to describe what a riveting burst of joy Amanda Bouchet’s Nightchaser is - a sci-fi romance that blends the wisecracking teamwork of Firefly with the galactic overlords and hunky space scoundrels of Star Wars. Anne fortier new book5/12/2023 "It very much resembles what you imagine as having been those old family feuds," Fortier says.Īnd, Fortier says, the truce between the Tolomeis and the Salimbenis is a historical fact. In modern day Siena, the biannual Palio horse race is characterized by competitions between rival contrade, or wards, throughout city. The author argues that the love story was inspired by historical events. They have been at each other's throats since the 14th century. She quickly discovers an ongoing feud between the Tolomeis and other powerful families in Siena. Her retelling of Romeo and Juliet is a contemporary fairy tale that mixes medieval and modern mystery - a time-shifting, semi-historical maze that unravels the "unknown" story of the feuding families in fair Verona.įortier's protagonist, 25-year-old Julie Jacobs, inherits a key to a safety deposit box in Siena, Italy - where she travels under her birth name, Giulietta Tolomei. The Bard is rolling in his grave - and according to novelist Anne Fortier, that's a good thing. In her novel, Juliet, Anne Fortier merges a little fact and a lot of fiction to elaborate on the tale of the young, doomed lovers. Romeo mourns his beloved Juliet in an 1895 production of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet at the Lyceum Theatre in London.

Jane eyre wuthering heights5/12/2023 I, on the other hand, am a Librarian.Ī socially-inept only child, precociously devoted to solitary reading and with a wide-ranging, frequently pompous vocabulary, there was no way I wasn't going to adore Jane Eyre, the pale little scrap who introduced me to words like "moiety" and "redolent". If you want to be particularly contentious, you can divide those who satisfy the basic entry criteria into two types – those drawn to demure, bookish Miss Eyre and those for whom the pyrotechnical hanky-panky between Cathy Earnshaw and black-browed Heathcliff is paramount – and call them Librarians and Rock Stars. This reminded me of my long-held pet theory about the Battle of the Brontës: everyone who's read both Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights is passionately devoted to one book but nose-holdingly repelled by the other. In Alison Flood's recent blog about the books she remembers most vividly from school, she mentioned that Jane Eyre bored her, but that the melodrama of Wuthering Heights kept her enthralled. |
