A great read all the way to the end. I love when this happens. An even better mystery, strong heroine. Includes slavery, the underground railroad, ghost and glimpses of southern eating/living. LOVED IT!!
I was excited to read this variation of the Bluebeard tale, made new by featuring Bluebeard's goddaughter rather than a wife. I was initially turned off by my introduction to the heroine, whose admiration for her sight-unseen godfather has strong romantic tones, even when she thinks he is married. S...
This book was wonderfully written. Kudos to Jane Nickerson on her debut!Strands of Bronze and Gold was both creepy and intriguing. Bernard scared the crap out of me and gave me the heebie jeebies. He was a very strong character. Probably the strongest I've ever read. But I felt like he had nothi...

I was initially drawn to Strands of Bronze and Gold because of that gorgeous cover, but I also love fairy tales as much as the next girl. Truth be told, I'd never actually heard of the Bluebeard fairy tale until I discovered this book. Much like my experience with Entwined, I went into Strands wit...
Strands of Bronze and Gold is a re-telling of the Bluebeard Grimm tale. Like most other Grimm tales it is less fairy princess and more dark, gritty, mysterious story. The re-telling was no different. I was constantly wondering what would happen next and how the main character was going to escape her...
