The Second Life of Mirielle West: A Haunting Historical Novel Perfect for Book Clubs

I heard the author speak on a panel, and it intrigued me to read the book. I am so glad that I did. It was well-written and well-researched.

I really enjoyed this story, and I learned a lot about Hansen's disease as the story progressed. Well done!

I recommend this story highly.

Interesting and informative, while being a heck of a novel. Characters were well developed and interesting. Not to be missed!

I read the paperback and listened to the audio book. The audio book was decent, but many mispronounced words (regional terms, cities, etc). Very slow start, but when the action picked up, it was a decent story. Nice character development. Enjoyed the accuracy of the historical background.

Very cool learning about leprosy. The main character did annoy me a bit though.

I still think about this book. I struggled to get through it and was happy I did. It was a book that put me in a reading slump but, encouraged me to pick up another one once I finished
