Spirited by Julie Cohen
4.0

This story follows the lives of three individuals who are lonely and lost and takes us on a journey of finding love and acceptance.

Recently married, childhood sweethearts, Violet and Jonah have recently moved to the country to try and get over the loss of her father. Before they were married Jonah spent time in India and Violet feels he has come back changed and now feels lonelier than ever with her father gone and her husband acting like a stranger.

Then a well know spirit medium arrives in town and she sees that Jonah is hiding something from his new wife.

I was initially unsure about the spiritual element but I actually really enjoyed it and ended up flying through this book. The women in it were both strong and capable and so perfect for each other.

This is great piece of historical fiction that I really felt immersed in and I really liked the pieces of old text at the end of the chapters. If your a fan of historical fiction reads like the familiars then this is definitely one you are going to want to pick up!

Thank you to @orion and @annecater14 of Random Things Tours for my #gifted copy in exchange for review.
