An Uncommon Woman by Laura FrantzMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Laura Frantz is one of those authors who grew on me over time. I'm really enjoying her historical fiction due to the thorough research she does and the real and raw characters she creates.
Tessa was a refreshing character with her positive outlook and longing for more. Clay with his struggle of being in the middle was also different and made me connect to him. And I enjoyed the build in suspense.
The narrator also did a great job and I really loved the singing parts - it is one of the benefits of listening to an audiobook.
