Today’s Featured Book is the Historical Fiction, THE BOOKMARK by Anne Supsic.
Can a bookmark reveal a long-forgotten romance? In 1777, The Marquis de Lafayette is wounded in battle and cared for by a Moravian Sister in the isolated community of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Gossips of the time speculated of a romance, but only the discovery of a bookmark over two hundred years later can reveal what really happened. This immersive romantic mystery illuminates a little-known piece of American history through the lives of two women, separated by the centuries but alike in their determination to confront the past and find a way forward.
“Written with an impressive level of historical detail, this dual storyline does not disappoint, and the characters in each era make turning the page worthwhile. That said, the reader might not need a bookmark after all; this page-turner is hard to put down!” –Thomas McCullough, Assistant Archivist at the Moravian Archives
“What a wonderfully written historical love story. Anne Supsic wove together the present and the past as beautifully as I imagine the embroidery was done on the bookmark. The perfect book for anyone that loves history and a love story.” -Goodreads Review
