Friday Finds: Nov. 28


I post my entire list of weekly discoveries on Sundays, but I like to pick out at least one book to highlight for this meme. To see what others found this week, click here.

Both books today were suggested by my local library.




Historical fiction about "the Anglo-Burmese war, a rogue major, and the fate of an ordinary piano tuner drawn into an extraordinary entanglement."









First in a mystery series that takes place in medieval Ireland.





EDIT: Here are links for more information: The Piano Tuner and My Lady Judge.

    I just added MY LADY JUDGE to my wish list, along with the 2nd book in the series.

    I love anything connected to Ireland.

    My Lady Judge sounds great! Medieval Ireland sounds like a time I'd like to read about!

    Manasa: I don't know much about them. I'll edit my post with links to Amazon.

    Yikes! I've never heard of the Anglo-Burmes war. I thought I was pretty well rounded with history, I'll have to google it.

    These sound very intriguing! I haven't read much historical fiction in the past several years but I keep thinking I should throw a few in to my list each year. ;)
