The Book Recommendation Thread
From Ilona: Like most prolific readers, I started reading in childhood. My regular library haul, which I carried over two tramway stops to my home in a canvas bag, usually required me to stop a few times and rest, because dragging 8 hardbacks over long distances was a bit much for a 9 year old.

Jane Doe by Victoria Helen Stone
I read this book and was gripped by intense envy. This is the reason why you didn’t get an Innkeeper installment yesterday. I wish I had written this book. I wish I had written it half as well as Victoria did. A double life with a single purpose: revenge. Jane’s days at a Midwest insurance
