maureenrenee 's review for:
The Orphan Collector
by Ellen Marie Wiseman
Ellen Marie Wiseman has proven once again why she is one of my favorite historical fiction authors. I knew this book would be a difficult one, being that it's about the Spanish Flu of 1918 and here we are in our own pandemic over 100 years later. But wow! This book touched me in so many ways. Wiseman is able to bring her characters to life in a way that makes you feel like they are right in the room with you and that you are living what they are living rather than just reading about it. And with a topic like this, it was a very tough read at times!
Having said that, I can tell you that it is 100% worth it to pick this one up if you are a fan of historical fiction. Just be prepared. It might tear at your heart, but I promise it will be put back together by the end.
