Reading a book is always that much swe...Hi Sandra,<br /><br />Reading a book is always that much sweeter when it is a win, so many Congratulations!<br /><br />I don't tend to read historical fiction which is too 'heavy' or detailed on the history, but something like 'Beyond The Ashes' sounds to have got the balance just right.<br /><br />I like the way that men are described as such reckless drivers who think they are invincible. Whilst that might well be true, it seems to me that women drivers of today aren't that much better themselves, especially when my journey always seems to coincide with the school run in the mornings and afternoons. Women then seem to leave all sense and courtesy behind them as they leave the house and the hapless non-child bearing car driver (me) needs to have eyes in the backs of their heads, as well as being a mind reader :)<br /><br />Enjoy the rest of the book and thanks for sharing :)<br /><br />YvonneYvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2993930617464275848.post-14077941937117055022016-12-09T19:06:09.369-08:002016-12-09T19:06:09.369-08:00Haha, that excerpt made me laugh.
