I’ve always loved history.

One part I’ve never known much about is Louisiana’s history. I visited once many years ago, and I knew about the Louisiana purchase and the French infusion, but as someone that visits Paris often and likes reading about Napoleon, I’ve always meant to read more about it, but never did. Until now when I found the perfect book!

Smoke in the Cypress is just everything you want in historical fiction. This feels like you’re watching a movie while reading a book. Set during the war of 1812, it dives deeply into the daily lives of the people truly affected at this time. The characters are alive and emotional and you are right there with them the entire time.

I highly recommend this book, even if you’re not a fan of historical fiction, you will find this is a page turner!

Thank you @thefuture_of for this gifted copy!
