I haven’t been able to settle into many books this week. I’ve read a few partial books but they aren’t holding my interest.
The Oracle of Stamboul
Eleonora is born in Romania in 1877. It is clear that she is a gifted child. When she is eight she goes with her father to Stamboul on a business trip. Her world expands to include a potential spy, a possible revolutionary, and the Sultan.
This was an interesting book. It isn’t like anything I’ve read before. It combines historical fiction with a bit of magical realism.
Sounds good 🙂 Never heard of it but it sounds cool!!
really like the cover and found it very nice that you linked it to amazon so I could add it to my wishlist more easily
I’m still on vacation but I’ve caught a cold. I’ve been too sick to get much reading done. Please come see what I’m reading.
My reading was down this week too. Holidays tend to do that.
Have a great week!
