The Nature of Fragile Things

3.5

I really loved the mystery within the covers of this novel. It was well written and kept me captivated from the beginning. I have enjoyed all of the books I have read from this author, so I wasn't surprised. So far, this is my favorite book of the year. I haven't read a lot of historical fiction from this time period. It seems easy to find a plethora of WWII based books, which is my favorite genre but I have read so,so many that I wanted a different time period to escape into. I really,liked the immigrant experience, the independent woman in a time period where women didn't have a lot of power, and secrets and lies throughout the book. The entire novel was fantastic.
