If Only It Were Yesterday by A.M. HeathMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A delightful Victorian romp! A twist on the Alice in Wonderland story that will keep you guessing. From page one I was immediately sucked down the rabbit hole, snuggling in for a cozy good read. Ever so delightfully, I quickly found out that our heroine Elizabeth is an old soul, lover of books, antiques, and bygone good manners.
If you like any vintage era, ever wished you lived in a time period before your own, or felt nostalgia for somewhere you've never been, this book might be for you! Our main character Liz Cooke gets the opportunity to travel to another era which she has idealized and felt a nostalgic yearning for, and gets to experience it all in person... It should be fun, right?
Especially recommended for Christian readers who want a bit of whimsy in their reading life.
Recommended for: Adults & Teens
Suitable for: Ages 10 & up
---So many quotable selections!---
.... 'Miss Hillman smiled at me as if she knew some great secret. “While that may be true, you cannot change your past. It would be unfair of us to judge you based on where you came from but, rather, on where you're going, because where you're going can still be changed, shaped, and rediscovered. Where you're going says so much more about who you are and the heart that beats within. Sometimes a person's past is just plain hard or out of their control. But your future–the purpose you've set your feet upon–this is all of your own planning.”' ....
