        I don’t know if anyone here is into historical fiction besides @freedomwriter76, but I just finished reading a book by Jennifer Neilson called Words on Fire. It’s about a girl that’s one of the smugglers who smuggles book to Lithuanians, because Russia had invaded Lithuania and put a ban on Lithuanian literature. The Russians pretty much tried to destroy the nation of Lithuania, even by banning their language, but the smugglers tried to preserve that. I really enjoyed it and thought it was really good!! I really liked the theme too. Y’all should check it out! 😊

          Has anyone read “Good wives” by Louisa May Alcott? I just started it and love it! It is technically the fourth little women book and takes place right as Meg gets married. I have only read the first few chapters, so dont spoil it 😀  But I would love to chat about it with anyone as I read it though!

            I’ll have to check that out! I didn’t even know it existed! XD

            I should probably reread Little Women anyway. 😛

                  (I was notified for your post, but then it doesn’t show up here. You’re new one does though.)

                  I’ve heard of it and I think one of my cousins really likes it. Is it good?

                    Well, its good and bad. The first one was great and I couldn’t wait to read the second. The second was good, the third was the similar and there are 13 total! Im on #7 now and I find they are all pretty much the same. But I would definitely give them a try!

                        Jennifer A. Neilson’s Hist-Fic is pretty awesome. Resistance is really good, and three of her others (A Night Divided, Lines of Courage, Behind Enemy Lines) are pretty decent. I will say that some newer stuff hasn’t match the quality of the first. Rescue was kinda a letdown, and Iceberg had a lot of rule breaking.

                        You will love what you spend time with.

                          Yesss!! Resistance was amazing!!!

                          Yeah, I can agree with that. (Even though I enjoyed both Rescue and Iceberg. Iceberg did have a lot of rule breaking, which bothered me a bit, while she didn’t have to do it, it did move the story along) I feel like the main characters started feeling like the same type of person, just with a few changes in personality.

                            I read the first couple books when I was in 6th grade, but then it got kinda dark and creeped me out too much so I stopped. XD

                              Has anyone read Sharron Creech? I just love all of her books! Which one is your favorite? I love “Absolutely normal chaos”, “Walk two moons”, “One time”, and all the others!

                                Umm I don’t think so, except for Moo 😂😅

                                My mom read it aloud to us a while ago, it was actually pretty good 😅 I haven’t read the Little women books except the first one, I think, but you’ll have to let me know how it is!!

                                Andd I read the first unfortunate events book, but never really got into them 😉 did you know there’s a show??

                                I read a night divided and words on fire!! They were both pretty good, you should definitely read her ascendance series if you haven’t yet!!

                                I’ll have to check out resistance, I don’t think I’ve read it!
