I am super excited to participate in this new meme hosted by Whitney over at She is too fond of books. Each week, I will highlight one book that I physically own and is on my TBR. It could have been there for months or just acquired yesterday, but the point is to spotlight novels that scream “read me”. Anyone is welcome to join in to encourage each other to clean up our tbr, just leave your link or book in the comments on Whitney’s site.

The Bronze Horseman by Paullina Simons 

*Thanks to Angelized 1st for the recommendation!

According to Goodreads: During the summer of 1941 the Metanov family are living a hard life in Leningrad. As the German armies advance their future looks bleak. For Tatiana, love arrives in the guise of Alexander, who harbours a deadly and extraordinary secret.

Why its on my TBR: I love Russian literature and had this book recommended to me. I’m excited to read it because of the setting and time period. The story sounds exciting and romantic. I am on a wait list at the library and hope to get it soon!
