Sixty years later, they find each other again. But while he wants to hold on to the past, she wants to leave it behind and live in the present. Two people, one shared history, and very different ideas about moving forward. A beautiful, bittersweet story about love, loss, and the passage of time.

Who knew a racehorse's history could be so fascinating? Lexington was a champion, but the enslaved young man who cared for him couldn't claim him as his own. A forgotten painting connects past and present in a story of racing, art, and overlooked history. I loved it so much I recommended it to my dad!

I was fascinated by Jeju Island's women divers, who worked while the men cared for the children. But what stayed with me was a friendship torn apart by misunderstandings and a truth kept hidden to protect someone. A beautiful, heartbreaking story of friendship and forgiveness.

This book completely changed how I viewed the Vietnam War, even making me rethink parts of my own family's story. Frankie taught me so much about the women who served and the sacrifices they made. But goodness, she frustrated me to no end! A powerful, emotional story that challenged what I thought I knew and stayed with me long after the last page.
