The Secret River

By Kate Grenville

Given to me by an Aussie friend this is an excellent historical fiction story set in the era of Australia being established as Britain's penal colony. The descriptive writing is outstanding, the characters strong and compelling and it was a first venture for me into a part of world history I knew little about.

I write short, pithy, book recommendations for family and friends. My best life is comprised of my husband, my boys, my books, a quiet place, a comfortable chair, a cocktail on my side table, and a Vizsla in my lap.
