Can't Wait Wednesday- The Lost Daughter

Hello! Today is one of my favorite weekly memes, Can't Wait Wednesday. Our host is Tressa@wishfulendings. Formally, this meme was Waiting on Wednesday hosted by Jill @breakingthespine. The purpose is to highlight a book that we can't wait  for usually the books are unpublished. This week I am highlighting The Lost Daughter by Gill Paul. Information from Goodreads,

Title- The Lost Daughter

Author- Gill Paul

Expected Publication  date- August 6th 2019? I say the question mark because     Goodreads says it came out in 2018 but the book has been removed from the links so I'm thinking that maybe the 2018 was a typo?

Goodreads Summary

"A Russian princess. An extraordinary sacrifice. A captivating secret....

From the number one best-selling author of The Secret Wife, The Lost Daughter is a sweeping, moving story of the tenacity of love and the power of forgiveness. Spectacular, enthralling and romantic, Gill Paul's latest novel will stay with you forever.

1918. With the country they once ruled turned against them, the future of the Romanov family hangs in the balance. When middle daughter Maria captures the attention of two of the guards, it will lead to the ultimate choice between right and wrong....

Fifty-five years later...

'I didn't want to kill her'. With these cryptic words Val's father dies, leaving her to unravel a mystery which unites two families who have faced unspeakable tragedy and perhaps to finally offer an explanation which has been long overdue."

 Why- I love all things Romanov! I want to read this because I am intrigued by the storyline.

The Sunday Post!

Welcome back! Today I am taking part in the weekly memes  The Sunday Post hosted by caffeinatedbookreviewer and Stacking The Shelves hosted by .tyngasreviews . I have had a great time coming up with the updates for these posts in the last few weeks and so I will keep doing them. Life This week was crazy for me because I had a a work blog due. While I enjoyed doing the post, it was more research than I had allotted for, so I just needed to spend more time on the blog than normal. Other than that it was an easy week. I got some read in and I got a new chapter up for my fanfic. Yesterday, we spent a lot of time in the backyard and shoveling stone for the yard. Read I just finished China Rich Girlfriend earlier today! All For One Alex &Eliza #3 is still so much fun and I think it is my favorite book of the trilogy still.

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  ...
