What the Mountains Remember
First, we have to pay homage to this gorgeous cover! Donโt you just want to jump right into it!?!
I have loved the way Calloway brings the beauty off the pages and alive before my eyes in her past two books Iโve read, and ๐ช๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ ๐ผ๐๐ป๐๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป๐ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฟ transported me into another splendid and intriguing story.
What appealed to you the most in this story?
I flew through this book and could not get over the depth, research, and heart put into the story. Callaway vividly brought a little-known chapters of US history to life showcasing the building of Grove Park Inn, Henry Fordโs Vagabonds tour, and the effects of tuberculosis on the working/poor class.
I was absolutely captivated by every aspect of this story, but I was, of course, could not get enough of Belleโs character and seeing her develop as a character and woman during a time when women were meant to be seen but not heard.
How was the romance?
Oh the tension and frustration I went through! It was perfect! Belle and Worth complimented each other perfectly with their views on love and marriage, and I could not get enough of their budding romance. I also couldnโt help but lecture them and cheer for them at the same time.
