About Me I am a retired librarian and I now support books and authors through my reviews.

I have always loved to read and I was able to share that love through my work as a public librarian for 22 1/2 years. I now promote literacy by reading, and then writing reviews. I love to support authors by sharing my reviews with others!

Bygone: Musings and Poems from a Regency Hearthside by Hannah Linder

Bygone: Musings and Poems from a Regency Hearthside
ABOUT THE BOOK

Modern, Regency-Esque Love Poems from a Regency Novelist Enjoy this hardback collection of whimsical thoughts and poems, perfect for fans of Jane Austen.



MY THOUGHTS.....

During my youth, it was customary for young girls to use a diary to write down their thoughts, secrets, and even their secret crushes. Today, journals are the preferred method for recording one's thoughts and I've been given the privilege of reading a journal penned by author Hannah Linder. Bygone: Musings and Poems from a Regency Hearthside is a collection of Linder's notes and thoughts that have been jotted down as poems. Observations and thoughts that could easily be my own!

This collection is divided into four categories titled Love, Life, Nature, and Death. Some of the poems are whimsical and others show great depth but each one will touch your heart. They are reminiscent of Jane Austen and the Regency era, but they also reflect life as it is in our 21st century. It is a wonderful collection that poetry lovers will especially appreciate so do yourself a favor. Grab a copy, settle back with a cup of tea, and prepare to lose yourself in Bygones!

I received an advanced reader copy but there was no obligation for a positive review. These are my own thoughts.


My rating: 4 of 5 stars
