![]() ![]() I dare you not to love this book as much as I did. Two strong female characters navigating timeless questions about love, betrayal, and ambition, and a mystery? The gradual unspooling of plot twists is just icing on the cake. Sleep deprivation notwithstanding, this was the perfect book to get lost in. As the plot thickens, you, reader, are soon grappling not only with the secret identity of the lady in the photograph, but also with a murder and a missing diamond. It’s clear that the women are connected-they’ve both suffered the loss or abandonment of a parent, and there’s this old sketch of a house they both seem to know. Then there’s the mysterious woman depicted in a portrait found inside. A truly hypnotic tale that is bound to please both fans and newcomers, The Clockmakers Daughter is another wonderful read from one of Australias most beloved authors. First there’s Elodie, a 20-something-year-old archivist who discovers a mysterious century-old leather bag. Kate Mortons highly acclaimed novels have sold over 11 million copies worldwide and are number one bestsellers around the world. ![]() The Clockmaker’s Daughter is centered on two lives lived 150 years apart. So, bear with me while I sleepily tell you about a book that might just be an insomniac’s dream. ![]() ![]() I’m always on the hunt for a book that gets me so hooked that I physically can’t put it down. I call it “falling-for-a-book-so-hard-I-stay-up-all-night-reading” (can someone please suggest a better name?). ![]()
